The Republic of Thieves by Scott LynchMy rating: 2 of 5 stars
There are some books you can just immediately recognize are the result of a bunch of research notes leftover from the earlier good novels.
I just could not get to relate to this. The situation was off - funny, but ultimately feeling very pointless. There seemed to be something about this story - this specific situation - that seems to have some subconscious significance for Scott Lynch, but honestly, it's not come through... so there's a kind of frustration and bemusement that colors the entire reading experience.
And the mages... were better when unrevealed. This lot is seriously disappointing.
