The Thorn of Camorr is said to be an unbeatable swordsman, a master thief, a friend to the poor, a ghost that walks through walls.

Slightly built and barely competent with a sword, Locke Lamora is, much to his annoyance, the fabled Thorn. And while Locke does indeed steal from the rich (who else would be worth stealing from?), the poor never see a penny. All of Locke's gains are strictly for himself and his tight-knit band of thieves: The Gentlemen Bastards.

(There may or may not be spoilers as the only way I'll explain my song choices is through the lyric extracts. Either way, I recommend reading the book first!) ( Gentleman Bastard {Richer & Cleverer} )
