Far better written than a game tie-in deserves and a nice fill in while we (hopefully) wait for a new Locke Lamora book.
My only criticism, think it suffered a bit from 'Return of the King' syndrome. The need to tie up loose ends and give every character a satisfying conclusion made the story drag a little longer than was absolutely needed.

This is a minor quibble for a very fun read. If you know Blades in the Dark it's even better, if you don't it's still great.

True, the cast of characters is a few too large, making it hard to keep track of the plot at first. I found a particularly vexing to have so many character name’s start with the letter S. But there’s an edginess, a wit, and plenty of great dialogue in this story of heist gone bad and a motley crew of rogues scrambling to adapt. There’s no need to know anything about the Blades in the Dark universe … but plenty of rich steampunk Gothic vibes that make me want to explore the universe more.
