Black Diamonds in the Rough
Revisado: 02-18-21
There are some real gems here:
"Scrape" is by a good margin the best of the bunch. "The Depths" and "The Dead Spot" were phenomenal as well.
"That Time Maggie Ghosted Me," ought to be a TV series or a movie, for sure.
In this anthology, there is the arcane, the profane, the odd, the disturbing, the mind-warping, and the subtle terrifying truth that we, humanity, are terrors in and of ourselves.
The anthology format makes this a commute-friendly book, and Kendra Lords' narration is immersive and present. Monsters are voiced with tension, but demented children is where Lords truly shines. Positively skin-chilling renditions of things that ought-not-to-be...

After a brutal battle with the underworld that nearly destroyed him, Locke and his trusted sidekick, Jean, fled the island city of their birth and landed on the exotic shores of Tal Verrar to nurse their wounds. But even at this westernmost edge of civilization, they can’t rest for long - and are soon back to what they do best: stealing from the undeserving rich and pocketing the proceeds for themselves. This time, however, they have targeted the grandest prize of all: the Sinspire, the most exclusive and heavily guarded gambling house in the world.

Wow. This was a really powerful story. lots of twists and turns, typical of Scott Lynch! Once again the question is perpetually 'How could this get any worse?' Inevitably, it does. Can't wait for more. A wide cast of soulful characters amidst wonderful world building with grit and detail.

An orphan's life is harsh---and often short---in the island city of Camorr, built on the ruins of a mysterious alien race. But born with a quick wit and a gift for thieving, Locke Lamora has dodged both death and slavery, only to fall into the hands of an eyeless priest known as Chains---a man who is neither blind nor a priest. A con artist of extraordinary talent, Chains passes his skills on to his carefully selected "family" of orphans---a group known as the Gentlemen Bastards.

Wonderfully Devious
Revisado: 10-17-20
An amazing book, enormously satisfying. frankly shocked I had not heard of it before. I only learned about the author after listening to "A Year and a Day in Old Theradane," on the Rogues anthology. But here we have a wonderful character in Locke Lamora, a scoundrel who gives every rogue a run for their money, bar none.
The narrator was an absolute master, every character had a distinct voice, easily recognizable.

Putting the Grand Quest behind them, the party rides onward in search of answers. Between one member's unexpected new condition and the mysteries of the Bridge, their only hope appears to be gaining entrance to Lumal, said to hold the greatest collection of knowledge in all the kingdoms. But when a curious path appears in a seemingly uninhabited forest, the party finds themselves in a place set apart from the kingdoms, and the world at large: a hidden hamlet, filled by unusual people, all of whom have long histories of their own.

What a wonderful blend of all the things I love. Dashing charm, adventure, irony, wit, and of course, scoundrels. I love Drew Hayes' style and sense of intimate adventure.
