After the sublime The Lies of Locke Lamora, I was a little disappointed in Scott Lynch’s Red Seas Under Red Skies. That, however, hasn’t stopped me from salivating over The Republic of Thieves for the past few years. Now, it’s just around the corner and you can read the first chapter, courtesy Camorr.com. The prologue is also available via Lynch’s official website.
The wait until January, 2011 just got a little harder.

I’m looking forward to this too– loved “Lies of Locke Lamora.”
That chapter is awesome :-) can’t wait!
I so can not wait for Republic to come out!!! and having read the excerpt, I’m feeling even more impatient.

I think I was the only person not disappointed by Red Seas Under Red Skies. I liked the risks he took and the conventions he broke.
