Yes friends, it’s true.
From the Gollancz site:
Publication Date confirmed for Scott Lynch’s THE REPUBLIC OF THIEVES
Gollancz Author: Jon – March 14th, 2013
The Orion Publishing Group (UK & Commonwealth) and the Random House Publishing Group (US) are thrilled to announce the publication of the third instalment in Scott Lynch’s popular fantasy series that began with The Lies of Locke Lamora. THE REPUBLIC OF THIEVES will release on October 10, 2013 in the UK and Commonwealth and October 8, 2013 in the US.
Scott Lynch’s first novel, The Lies of Locke Lamora, was a critically acclaimed hit when it was published in 2006. Bestselling author George R.R. Martin called it “a fresh, original, and engrossing tale by a bright new voice in the fantasy genre.” Publication rights sold in more than 20 countries. The second book in the series, Red Seas Under Red Skies, followed in 2007 to more critical acclaim. Since then, readers have anxiously awaited the next installment. Scott has now delivered the final manuscript and we are able to confirm publication date.

are you jumping up and down as much as I am?
I should get a cookie for being so polite and diplomatic.

OK, you are going to think this weird – well, not you because you are weird like me in this regard – I was dreaming of these books two nights ago, I shit you not. I am so looking forward to Book 3. Yeah for Lynch – you make us laugh, cry, tear our hearts out and put them back crooked, and we love you for it. Do it again, please!

me too.
I remember when Red Seas came out, 2 bad things happened: I read it so fast the first time that i missed all the subtleties, and it’s drastically different than the first book, so I was all like “this is different. I don’t know if I like different”. through my own preconceived notions of what I wanted, I wasn’t sure if I liked it. Second time through, I came to my senses, and loved it.
When RoT comes out, I think I’m going to take some sick days from work so I can sit home reading non stop. Because I’m going to read that book twice before reviewing it. the first time will be my frenetic gotta-get-to-the-end pace, the second time will be so I can actually enjoy it.

I think your tweet shows great self-containment, under the circumstances! I’m choking in my own squeals while smiling like a lunatic and flailing and bouncing and when is it October?
