They say that The Thorn of Camorr is an unbeatable legend in battle, who steals from the rich and gives to the poor. And yet... Small, weak, and not particularly skilled with a sword, Locke Lamora is the famous Thorn of Camorr. With his sharp mind, he devises incredible confidence games to relieve the aristocrats of their excess wealth.
The poor, however, should steal for themselves – the treasures Locke gathers are intended exclusively for the Noble Bastards, his tight-knit gang of orphans raised in crime. Their base is the coastal city of Camorr, a place full of contradictions, under the control of the underworld boss, Capa Barsavi – until the mysterious Gray King appears and turns everything upside down.
Caught up in a deadly game, Locke and his friends will see their trust, endurance, and ingenuity tested again and again, in order to save the city and themselves...
The first book of the masterful series that dazzled with its twists and humor and conquered international bestseller lists.
