Six Of Crows

Description

Think Oceans 11, but the fantasy version where the characters have magical abilities and you have some idea what Leigh Bardugo's fantasy trilogy is about.Â A band of thieves teams up to rob the mother of all vaults in an impenetrable fortress controlled by a very bad wizard. The series is surprisingly complex (the description comes off as a light YA fantasy tale) with a detailed magic system, compelling and complex characters, and thrilling tale that will grip you from start to finish. It's also a gritty fantasy tale with flawed characters who suffer and have suffered.One of the better rogue/thief fantasy stories in the genre and certainly an enjoyable tale that will pull you along to the end. The author has found mega success with this series and I feel the success is very well deserved.
