Amber asked this question about Six of Crows (Six of Crows, #1):

Why is it called Six of Crows and not Six Crows or something similar? What does the title mean exactly?

Grace I believe it is a play-on-words related to a deck of cards, for example a six of kings. Also, The main character owns a casino called the ‘Crow Club’ …moreI believe it is a play-on-words related to a deck of cards, for example a six of kings. Also, The main character owns a casino called the ‘Crow Club’ where the characters play card games and gamble. The title refers to the six people who band together to pull off the heist, and call themselves crows I guess as crows are a common piece of symbolism in this book, for example the main character’s walking stick has a crow’s head as the handle. Therefore they are the ‘Six of Crows’. Hope this helped :)(less)
