Well, boys and girls, mark your calendars. We’ve got a (tentative, vague) date for the next volume of Scott Lynch’s Gentlemen Bastards<\/em> sequence, The Thorn of Emberlain<\/em>.<\/p>\n

The Thorn of Emberlain<\/em> “ought to be out in the fall of 2014,” said Lynch in an interview with Fantastical Imaginations<\/a>. While some guarded skepticism is natural, Adam Whitehead of The Wertzone<\/a> said, “Scott’s publishers are themselves confident that this date can be met: Scott began work on The Thorn of Emberlain<\/em> some time before the final edits on Republic [of Thieves] were done, and the novel is already in an advanced stage of writing.”<\/p>\n

Lynch also revealed some early details about what fans can expect of Locke and Jean’s misadventures in Emberlain:<\/p>\n

\nThe Thorn of Emberlain<\/em>, the fourth book in the Gentleman Bastard<\/em> sequence, picks up about half a year after The Republic of Thieves and finds Locke Lamora and Jean Tannen trying to get back on their feet with a major con. They\u2019re trying to sell the services of a non-existent mercenary company to the besieged city-state of Emberlain, hoping to escape with the hiring fees before the chaos of the Vadran civil war overruns Emberlain. Naturally, things don\u2019t go according to plan\u2026\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Given my love for Lynch’s most recent novel, The Republic of Thieves<\/em> (REVIEW<\/a>), The Thorn of Emberlain<\/em> has immediately vaulted to the top of my most anticipated novels for 2014.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
