I want to hear about your favorite books that include heists as a major element. Bonus points if it's set in a fantasy, sci-fi, or non-contemporary setting. (Basically I want something like Gentleman Bastards that's not just rereading Gentleman Bastards)

Man... I should reread gentleman bastard. Is there a new book out yet?

Edit: Book four appears to be out but I'm wondering if I should reread the series or will I understand enough to be fine just diving in.

I looked it up and amazon says book four isn't coming out until October of next year? I guess that leaves plenty of time for rereading...

Ope! I just saw an order on amazon button on goodreads (ik, ik goodreads bad but it was at the top of my search) so I thought it was out. I'm going to wait until it's closer to that date to see if it's real (I believe there have been false dates from this author before).

I hate to burst your bubble but TToE (4th book) is not out yet. There will be three novellas released first then book 4. All still have no set release date AFAIK
