Scott Lynch writes fantasy centred on thieves, elaborate confidence schemes and friendships tested by increasingly dangerous plans. The Lies of Locke Lamora introduces Locke and the Gentleman Bastards, a small group of highly trained criminals operating in the canal city of Camorr. Their carefully prepared cons collide with a violent power struggle in the city's underworld, forcing Locke to improvise far beyond the original scheme. Red Seas Under Red Skies takes Locke and Jean into casino fraud and piracy, while The Republic of Thieves adds political manipulation and a long-running personal rivalry. Lynch's books are witty, dark and plot-driven, with banter and criminal planning central to the experience. They fit heist fantasy, secondary-world crime and character-led adventure. Read more Less
