This book turned out disappointing. Just like in the two previous books there are basically two story lines being told. One current, one past. In them, we are finally introduced to the final member of the Gentlemen Bastards, who has been hinted at several times in the previous books. Unfortunately...
This is a really good book. Let's say that straight-up. But it isn't quite as good as the first two in the series, which I thought were phenomenal. So if I'm quibbling, remember that I did really like this. I just have such high expectations of Scott Lynch. Locke and Jean are back. Locke is sufferi...
I'm sold on Scott Lynch. He's put out three very solid books in this series and, although they're not the very best books I've ever read, I definitely rate all three of them as "amazing." I particularly enjoy how even though Lynch maintains a very recognizable style through the entire series, each b...
I think I need to add a bookshelf for "superlative snark."I don't have the energy right now to properly review this, but let me just say that Scott Lynch gives me hope for the genre. His characters are smart (but not genius, never make a misstep smart) and human and hilarious and Lynch especially do...
Somewhere along the way, I read book one of this series. But I didn't rate or review it. My memory of it was that I liked Locke but found the book in need of an edit. I know I didn't read the second one and am not sure how I ended up picking up book three. Although I'm glad I did.I really loved Lock...
For more reviews, visit my blog The Accidental Reader This is a sad one. I'm not even sure anymore how to explain it. reading the book took time...It's a long one, and I found it very uninetersting in comparison to the first two books. I'm going to do a mash up between a brief review and an overal...
Like many folks, I have been waiting anxiously for this book to finally be released. It was worth the wait. I don't know what struggles Mr. Lynch went through to complete this novel, but he came through them with a fine story full of color and intriguing characters. Much of this was done through the...
Again a bit disappointed. Republic's pace and plot is similar to Red Seas. Insert Locke and Sabetha courtship instead of Jean and Ezri's. The story needs to move on by now.Republic starts with Locke dying/convalescing and Jean desperately keeping him from playing the martyr (once again). This scene ...
