Review of The Republic of Thieves
[Spoiler Warning]
Some jumbled thoughts about this here book.
The first time I heard of The Lies of Locke Lamora it was through that one solitary negative review that popped up when the book was published, so I did not purchase the book. When Red Seas under Red Skies came out, I thought it looked damn interesting and I had forgotten the first review, so I purchased the first book and devoured it and loved it. I read the second book shortly afterwards and I was pretty disappointed. It felt like a far cry from the brilliance of the first book. I am not sure why, as it was several years ago. Nonetheless, I knew the first book was good enough to get me to read the remaining six books in the series, and to always recommend the series to friends, so I eagerly awaited this third book.
The Republic of Thieves is amazing.
