About this listen

 After their adventures on the high seas, Locke and Jean are brought back to earth with a thump. Jean is mourning the loss of his lover and Locke must live with the fallout of crossing the all-powerful magical assassins, the Bonds Magi.

It is a fallout that will pit both men against Locke's own long-lost love. Sabetha is Locke's childhood sweetheart, the love of Locke's life and now it is time for them to meet again. Employed on different sides of a vicious dispute between factions of the Bonds, Sabetha has just one goal - to destroy Locke for ever.

The Gentleman Bastard sequence has become a literary sensation in fantasy circles and now, with the third book, Scott Lynch is set to seal that success.©2013 Scott Lynch Epic Epic Fantasy Fantasy Fiction Magic Paranormal Magic Users

Finally getting to meet Sabetha.

This book was clever and engaging all the way through. I love how it kept you guessing throughout. I also loved how we get to know the main characters better and how complex his and Sabetha's relationship is.

Wow!! My favourite so far

Scott is leading towards a third book, where it will go we're not sure but revenge is the clue.
Well written great narration as always, looking forward to the fourth instalment it's going to get DARK.

Third book in the series

A good story that in my opinion doesn't quite live up to the first two books. Lock is frustratingly niave to Sabetha's exploits and it does disappoint at times. I guess it's showing his weakness and vulnerability but can be annoying. Still worth the hours listening and looks to set up a fourth book I can only assume.

A good story that improves the further in you get.

If you could sum up The Republic of Thieves in three words, what would they be?

Sabetha at last!

Who was your favorite character and why?

Father Chains is such a strong believable character that gives a solid heart to the story

Have you listened to any of Michael Page’s other performances? How does this one compare?

As ever superb at painting characters in your mind's eye with precision

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

Yes.

A fantastic idea for a story with the levels of cunning, duplicity and cold hearted revenge that we have come to expect, but new depths of emotion, insecurity and intrigue.

We're getting the band back together...
