The Lies of Locke Lamora

...The Lies of Locke Lamora is one of the strongest débuts I've ever read. Lynch wrote a thoroughly entertaining tale, combining a very interesting fantasy setting with what is essentially a heist story.

It is a terribly fun read however, in terms of sheer entertainment value it succeeds gloriously....
