The Lies of Locke Lamora - Scott Lynch
Dec. 23rd, 2006 11:15 amThis was a first novel? Wow.
Okay, actually I can tell in a few very minor places that this is a first novel (eg. "impossibly fast" gets used a fair bit, like two or three times in a single fight scene), but I loved this book. It twists and turns; it amazes; it amuses; it scared the crap out of me once or twice.
Sadly, I see from Amazon that they're only expecting the next book in August 2007. This should give me time to get my own copy of this book in preparation.
