I’ve just finished bingeing all of the #JoeAbercrombie’s #FirstLaw audio books. Stephen Pacey’s narration is an absolutely joy.

Say one thing for @joeabercrombie.com, say he writes some cracking Northmen characters. Wonder whether his Lancastrian roots provided inspiration for any of them?

Jan Merchant's review of The Blade Itself (The First Law, #1) 3/5: This is a beloved series, and I can immediately see why. THE CHARACTERS! They’re amazing! Fully realized, believable, dare I say lovable (though they’re all a collection of bastards). By far the...

First book of the year, finished! The first in the popular Forst Law trilogy by Joe Abercrombie. Murky plotting but good lord these are fun characters. Frequently hilarious, too. #booksky #firstlaw

I think I will jump into The Devils once I finish The Wisdom of Crowds. Joe Abercrombie is a Master at his craft. Sad to nearly be finished with The First Law, but excited for his next adventure!

Red Country by Joe Abercrombie was Amazing. These 3 Stand alone novels were spectacular! I loved the reoccurring characters throughout the three books. I loved the minor characters from the first trilogy coming back and having time to shine. Absolutely Fantastic!

If I don't finish The Heroes today, then im finishing it tomorrow, followed by Red Ciuntry. Getting back into the Girst Law had been such a fun ride, Abercrombie is a Masterclass author with his character work. Love it!
