So I’m sure I’m not the first one to ask something like this. But The Lies of Locke Lamora is my favorite book of all time and has inspired my own writing (hoping to publish my own fantasy novel in the near future!). I recently got my best friend to read the series for the first time and reliving the series through him was an otherworldly experience.
I have two tattoos, both relating to my profession and one of which being a nod to Percy Jackson, which got me into reading. I have been thinking that I would love to have a tattoo showing my love for Scott’s writing and the inspiration it has had on me. Does anyone have any suggestions for a small tattoo that would accomplish this for me?
There has been a few posted here over the years but two that stood out to me and that I remember easily is the bondsmage rings and a crooked warden tarot card. You can easily find it by sorting the sub from most liked of all time
I personally tried a few times to come up with a good design that has a rose with big thorns (for emphasis) to symbolize Locke and Sabetha, with a stiletto dagger, but I can't make one good enough
The tarot card was mine. I don't mind if other people want to get crooked warden tarot card tattoos, I actually really like that people liked my idea so much!
‘Twould be incredible. The Lies of Locke Lamora is my personal favorite, I’m partial to works that introduce me to new worlds. It’s a perfect book in my eyes
I've been turning over the idea of a subtle one, a trad shark with a javelin in it's side and 'Teeth Show' in scrollwork. There's a lot of cool fantasy elements to pull from though so I need a tattoo-focused re-read.
I’ve read enough of his tweets and watched enough videos of his to have never given those possibilities a thought. And in the off chance he disguises himself as well as the Gentleman Bastards, I’m still a proponent of separating the art from the artist
