Loved Vin as a main character. Kel (did audiobook, don't know how to spell) was a little bit of a narcissist that you played with the emotions of characters and the reader. I thought this was a great heist book with a little political intrigue mixed in. Looking forward to seeing how the Ska build back up the empire and if they will make changes for the better.
