Helpful Score: 1


This was an outstanding effort from a first time author. I became friends with the wily intelligent Locke Lamora and his fellow Gentleman Bastards (thieves). I thought that this was a very good story. My only qualm was when Locke went back to his big score after he realized that the Grey King was privy to all of his actions. Because the character is supposed to be so clever it seemed out of character but that's a small thing when you take into consideration the entire read. It's one I would highly recommend and I give it 4.5 stars instead of 5 for this reason.
