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)

Leigh Bardugo - Six of Crows. Multiple heists, fantasy setting and nice YA vibe.

Not usually into YA but multiple heists might have won me over. I'll check it out, thanks.

Her Ninth House books are adult and, while the first isn’t primary focused on its few heist-esque components, the second definitely is. Dark Acadamia in a modern setting.
