If you love swashbuckling thieves, underworld conspiracies and so many twists and turns that it's hard to remember who you're rooting for, get this book.
I am a sucker for books about thieves, assassins and organized crime, but this book wasn't just a great example of that subgenre; it was just a great book. One thing I appreciate is that the main character is complicated and is forced to make choices he doesn't like. I tend to get annoyed when characters keep making crazy plans, out witting everyone and then have everything work out in the end. This book is messy and more relatable because of it.
Anyhow, great story, great characters, interesting world. I couldn't put it down and I'm looking forward to reading the sequel.
