When I was asked to read a fantasy book about gnomes, I needed no other prerequisite to say “Oh hell, yes!”. Especially when it revolves around a group of criminal gnomes looking to compete in a crime convention. I mean, many may not know this, but I play a gnome rogue in my D&D group. The book leans heavily on the comedic side, which sadly fell flat for me at times, but overall was still a joy to read. It was hard not to smirk as it was definitely a story that was ok laughing at itself. Unfortunately, sometimes it felt a bit forced, and those moments took me out of the experience. That being said, it was still a big adventure for our small heroes (anti-heroes at times), filled with lots of unique characters and a fair share of laughs. If you're a D&D nerd like me, or just like comedic fantasy, I definitely recommend giving it a shot.
