They say that the Thorn of Camorr is a legend who steals from the rich and gives to the poor...

Small, thin, and not very skilled with a sword, Locke Lamora is the infamous Thorn of Camorr. With his sharp mind, he devises incredible schemes to relieve the aristocrats of their excess wealth. The poor, however, can steal for themselves - the treasures Locke gathers are exclusively for the Gentlemen Bastards, his close-knit gang of orphans raised in crime.
When they get entangled in a deadly game, Locke and his friends will see their trust, endurance, and ingenuity tested as they strive to save the city and themselves.
The first book in the masterful series that conquered international bestseller lists with its twists and humor.
