Acerca de esta escucha

He's back! The long-awaited return of the most exciting new commercial fantasy writer of the 21st century. 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.

Third in the Gentleman Bastard series this one explore the world of coning politics and theater. Events from the previous start to come together showing the bigger world, consequences of characters action and we finally see the main character's previous romance. Despite knowing the author would bring a surprise into the plot, the surprise he brings is still a shock and changes the flow.
If you like low level fantasy, character driven stories and rogues you should read this series.

Continues the series while keeping it fresh

Best book so far!
Enjoying all the layers. It’s good to have more background on the characters - at last the red head mystery is reveayo

Redhead Mystery

The weakest instalment of the series. I just couldn't get into the story & found it tedious to finish the book.

Disappointed

Really seemed to have lost the plot with this one long periods with little happening.

Disappointing

It was one of those series where I couldn't wait to find out what happens, but didn't want it to end. and when it did, oh the torment. Lol.

I guess I expected too much from Lynch, but I feel certain that he didn't make as much of an effort this time around, either. The plot was just barely there and his characters aren't nearly as interesting, intelligent or charming as he would like to think, not enough to carry the slim premise of the book, in any case. To be sure, it was basically an excuse to delve into the history of the characters and introduce a certain someone who's been missing from the series (and who's been referenced on more than one occasion). And despite an entire book to do so, Lynch flailed and came up with nothing at the end. Just like the antagonists, every character besides Locke acts as a counterpoint to his. Locke is the only one who has any semblance of consistency or personal growth. On the point of antagonists, Lynch has always had to contrive a thoroughly convoluted way of involving them with Locke's story, this time around the complications remain but the reasoning just doesn't add up. I kept thinking, but why? Then when Lynch would explain a little bit more further on, I'd still be wondering why someone would go through all that trouble... like why? Usually, I can forgive or even forget these little mishaps because the story is so engrossing and the worldbuilding fantastic. But Lynch has hit with The Republic of Thieves. He didn't add anything new or anything that was sufficiently interesting to make someone want to read on. And the ending was supposed to be a cliffhanger (I think?) but all it did was make me begrudge Lynch: "Really? This was the big twist? Really? Oh and why did [ ] do that? That makes no sense! [ ] is supposed to be better than that!!"
I really, really wanted to like this book, but in the end I was just exhausted from waiting for something interesting or surprising to happen. I finished the book at night, turned off the lights and immediately went to sleep. It didn't make me buzz with excitement or awe, it was just something I had to get over so that I could focus on another book.
I would not recommend this for anyone who is not already obsessed with Lynch's world or who has very high expectations and was slightly disappointed by Red Seas Under Red Skies (which was good, don't get me wrong). Read a summary if you're curious. Save yourself the time and the money.
In its defense, I will say that the interludes were pretty cute and did a better job of entertaining me than the main story line. The task to which The Gentlemen Bastards are appointed to at first seemed a bit dull and slow-going for me, but once I got into it, I was able to appreciate the labor Lynch put into building up that story within the story of the book.

Disappointing

An outstanding series. well written, clever plot, with believable characters.

Another great performance by Michael, always a pleasure to hear clear diction, correct pronunciations and varied voices.

More please!

Thoroughly enjoyable, clever and well presented

I truly love this guy's writing and style. I often laughed my head off at his way of expressing ideas, and truly did not see the twists coming no matter how hard I tried! Hope there is more

Epic book and lots of fun
