No matter the conversation I will always find a way to recommend the Gentlemen Bastards series by Scott Lynch.

Take some Oceans 11 or Now You See Me con artist heist plot, stick it into a fantasy world somewhere in the triangle of LotR, Discworld, and Verona, and have the dialogue written by Tarantino. It's such an enjoyable romp. I like to imagine Matt Berry doing half the voices.
