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)

    I have not! I’m guessing Nemesis can’t really be read as a standalone? I’ll look into it regardless

      Unfortunately you’re right - while the author does a decent job explaining things to refresh your memory (characters magic, relationships, etc.), there is a mountain of world building required for Nemesis to really make sense, and what he does is definitely at the “reminder” level.
