Abercrombie's knack for wit and grit holds your attention throughout, and his eye for character means that there's heart as well as muscle." -- SFX (UK), "[Abercrombie has] begun breaking his own rules. And succeeding wildly at it. ... [R]arely has Abercrombie had so much fun while rollicking through his colorful cast's foibles and witty dialogue - and rarely has he dished out so much straight-for-the-heart poignancy." -- The A.V.

  • Quality read, characters to identify with, a world that is believable.

    Joe Abercrombie produced a trilogy that will pique the mind for years to come. The story is timeless: the art of warfare. Character development: his people are not one dimensional, they grow, mature and change as the story evolves. Humor: even the least funny people will enjoy the humor that occurs in the story. Descriptions of the time and places: Many different places are described in the story, fleshed out. The cities seem real, the poverty, the riches, the architecture, the mountains, trees and even armour and clothing. I really enjoyed a clean novel, no deep descriptions of sexual encounters - just matter of fact explanations and why it happened. Not a lot of foul language; there is some, but it makes a point. It is not just thrown about because the writer likes to fill in space. Loved the trilogy and will read it again. These books were bought for my son as a gift.
