The Republic of Thieves

Let me start by saying this is one of my favorite series. The first book was one of my favorites. The second was great too but not quite as good as the first for me. As for this one..my least favorite of the 3. Was it good? Yes but no where near the first two. I guess by the end I felt like this was more like a Part 1 or 2 books. I loved the back story, The Locke and Sabetha story and current interactions were great. I think what was off for me was the ending of both stories. Seemed like the current story and the election just kind of ended. The whole competition seemed like just friendly banter between them and at the end no one cared. The Magi stuff was great but I could careless about them. Seems like this books was needed to get us into the next one. Same issue with the back story. The twists and turns where great up until what happened at the end. There was no closure to what happened next. Seemed like a lot was held for the next one.

i have a feeling the next will be more like the first and should be awesome.
