Publisher's Summary

Escaping from the attentions of the Bondsmagi Locke Lamora, the estwhile Thorn of Camorr and Jean Tannen have fled their home city. Taking ship they arrive in the city state of Tal Varrar where they are soon planning their most spectacular heist yet; they will take the luxurious gaming house, The Sinspire, for all of its countless riches.

No-one has ever taken even a single coin from the Sinspire that wasn't won on the tables or in the other games of chance on offer there.

But, as ever, the path of true crime rarely runs smooth and Locke and Jean soon find themselves co-opted into an attempt to bring the pirate fleet of the notorious Zamira Drakasha to justice. Fine work for thieves who don't know one end of galley from another. And all the while the Bondsmagi are plotting their very necessary revenge against the one man who believes e has humiliated them and lived; Locke Lamora.

On par if not better than the first

Enjoyed just as much as the first, even though it was quite different. I think the narrator stepped the performance up a notch too.

Up to scratch!

As the first in the trilogy, this is a really well-written and narrated book - it is a good story if you liked the first adventure with a sprinkling of pirates along with the heist just for good measure!

A wild emotional ride

Another excellent tale by Scott Lynch. Excellent characters, and a realistic world. Betrayal, intrigue, roguery. And pirates. Awesome pirates.
