About Red Seas Under Red Skies

Locke Lamorra and Jean Tannen arrive in Tal Verrar with a new con: fleece the Sinspire, the most impregnable gambling house in the world. But they are caught between a scheming Archon who wants them as spies and a pirate fleet threatening the city — and before long, the two thieves find themselves press-ganged into learning how to sail. Hilarious, tense, and endlessly inventive.
