Red Seas Under Red Skies
by Scott Lynch
Schemes, Heists, False facing, Robery, Cliff jumping, sass, broken hearts, friendship, love, brotherhood, stabbing, sea monsters, magical assassins, normal assassins, poison, Kitties, AND OW MY HEART HOW DOES ONE BOOK CONTAIN SO MUCH EPIC?
“ I want to hug you. And I want to tear your gods-damned head off. Both at once."
"Ah," said Locke. "Near as I can tell, that’s the definition of 'family' right there.”
Goddamn I love this series, I love these characters, I love this world, I love this so much.
Red Seas Under Red Skies is just as great as the first book if not better because I already knew all the world building and could read it easier then the first.
Not only do we still have the amazing sass of Locke and the beautiful person that is Jean we have a whole cast of new characters that I fell hard for.
The one problem with the last book was the lack of female baddass's and this book more then made up for it. A whole boat load of baddass woman were in this book and I mean boat load BADASS LADY PIRATES YES! I want baddass lady pirates in all my books I don't care if it's a highschool contemporary baddass lady pirates for all stories please.
Locke is once again hatching a crazy scheme and gets caught up in even more crazy, blackmail, card tricks, thievery, assassins on assassins trying to kill him.
Basically if you read and enjoyed The Lies of Locke Lamora you're going to love this book. I'm torn about jumping straight into the third book because I need to know what happens next but also I won't have the 4th book BECAUSE ADULT FANTASY SUCKS AT PUBLISHING ONCE A YEAR and this was supposed to be published in 2015.
“We may need to ready ourselves to repel boarders.” “With what? One stiletto and hurtful insinuations about their mothers?”

Spoiler
Locke giving Jean the antidote was one expected because Jean really does deserve to be saved and two SET UP THE NEXT BOOK SO WELL I swear if it was all a fake and they were never really poisoned I'm going to laugh“We may need to ready ourselves to repel boarders.” “With what? One stiletto and hurtful insinuations about their mothers?”
