I'm so glad I read this book!

This was so close to a 5 star read, however the slow start lead to me taking some time to become completely enraptured by the story. But once it did, I was captured.

I was intrigued, invested, had to know what was going to happen. These characters enamored themselves to me and I absolutely loved the Gentelmen Bastards :)

There is heart break, trickery, intrigue, and such plotting.

Definite recommend.

I LOVED this book. I like Camorr, the town in this novel. I liked the female characters. The friendship between Locke and the other Gentlemen Bastards and especially between him and Jean. I liked the humour. I liked the sad parts - well, I hated them for a while too. I like this book and I will continue this series!
