The Lies of Locke Lamora

its like a better (straight) six of crows. dont get me wrong, i fucking love six of crows, However i have my problems with it, ESPECIALLY all the deus ex machinas. but in this book, our main characters dont quite get everything handed to them so easily as Kaz and his gang
one thing i did not like , though, were those short “interludes” where its just kinda lore dumping about the world. at the start, the interludes were backstory on locke and the gang, which was great, but when Scott was done with that, ig they just decided to , again, lore dump about the world, which was incredibly clunky especially when shit was going down, chapter end, interlude about this guy named Markos and how hes just the average british citizen when it comes to football. and the whores of Camorr and this throne n shit. just broke up the story when i cared about wtf was going to happen to locke, suddenly im forced to read about this asshole markos. fuck you markos.
anyway, highly recommend especially if you love six of crows.
