However, I do have a theory that maybe the next book is actually 6000 pages long. That's why it's taking this long, right?

Prophecies always find a way of coming to pass, and the inevitable battle between Wizardry and Sourcery finally happens, heralding the apocalypse.
The main character is as fucked up as you'd ever expect your most hated book antagonist to be. Only this time, he's not an antagonist. He's the main character.
Hi, So monster romance is all the rage right now in the romance world, and this unicorn had to get in on some action. I mean, who cares about regular human peens....we need some monster vitamin D up in this house. I mean, they provide more nutrients for everyone *wink, wink*. The book I will […]
Clark is a new-to-me author, and I was impressed by his well-considered, multi-dimensional approach in creating the female characters. They are smart, opinionated, powerful yet self-aware, and in touch with every aspect of their femininity.

The book hits over and over with great character moments, stellar world building, and plot moments that had me enraptured. I expect Greene's work in the series to only get bigger and better
Locke is a genius. He makes Kaz Brekker look like a child (which he is; well kinda). His schemes are bloody schemes. Don't get me wrong, Locke Lamora is not a good guy in any way. He's more of an anti-hero that'll always have my support.
When a fantasy book has lots of characters, it's scary because that means not all of them will make it. Even at that I can't help loving them and hope the author doesn't kill off all my favorites.
The structure of the Tsurani society becomes much clearer as we are allowed to explore the involution, the finer points of the socio-political construct.
