LET ME ENABLE YOU


CANON ENABLING MEME


Want to see more people consuming and RPing from your canon? This is the place to sell them on it! Make your argument for picking up a new book/series/movie/etc as convincing as possible if you really want to get out there.

Oh man, lucky ten thousand for you, then. If you like the Nightrunner books, you're going to love the Gentleman Bastards series by Scott Lynch. While Locke and Jean try not to get political in their work, they do everything from the classic beat-the-casino plot (Oceans Eleven in a fantasy setting) to pirates (badass lady pirate captain with her kids aboard her ship) to rigging an election competitively (on behalf of mages who hate them).

The first book is The Lies of Locke Lamora. The fourth book is on publishing hell, but the first three read fine as a trilogy.
