Locke Lamora is the most talented and audacious thief in Camorr. Trained from childhood as a purse-snatcher and conartist, his band of miscreats “The Gentlemen Bastards” have concocted one of the most elaborate confidence scams in memory. if it works, they’ll be as rich as nobility. if they get caught… Hanging will be a mercy.
The Lies of Locke Lamora is intriguing, action packed and sometimes genuinely hilarious. If you like your anti-heroes as fast as their wits as with a sword then this is a book you need to read.
You may wonder how Scott Lynch could possibly improve on perfection for the sequel, Red Seas under Red Skies?
Easy. Just add pirates.
