The book started out with a back story of this smartass little punk who has an aptitude for stealing and also for smartmouthing people. Then the book fast forward a few years right into the midst of the now grown up Locke's scheme. The flashing back and forth between the present and the past was a little confusing at first, but as the book continues, I came to like this little interludes.

Many reviews say that this book is like Ocean 11 set in fantasy realm. I could not agree more. This is a unique twist to the usual fantasy cliches of wizards, knights, rangers, and damsels in distress. I laughed out loud many times at the wit of our protagonist and how he just barely hatched his plans as he conned his way around his victims.

I would definitely read again. Just could not wait to get started on the next book in the series!
