Red Seas Under Red Skies by Scott Lynch
5.0

I'm still trying to figure out if Locke and Jean have the best luck in the world or the worst luck in the world! At the very least, they are the slipperiest thieves that ever there was. Corner them and they will find a crack in the wall to escape through!

At the very least, I enjoyed this book, probably better than the last one. The sense of direction was easier to follow, most likely because I am used to Lynch's writing style by now. Locke and Jean have become good friends to me, and I find myself muttering prayers to the Crooked Warden to safely see them both through their latest debacle.

The same can't be said for their friends however. After the heartbreak of losing Galdo, Calo and Bug, I had prepared myself to say goodbye to any friendly characters in this book. Even with that preparation, the loss of Ezri still hurt. :(
