I've seen numerous reviews complaining about the ending/the series itself, and I have to strongly disagree with them.The characters were superb. In fact, I even like the characters more than some of the characters in George R.R Martin's A Song of Ice and Fire. I liked every character in the First ...

What way to end the series. First book gives us a great foundation of plot and characters, second was more about the knowing these characters and executions of the plan and third was the end. End of all the plots and sub-plots. Happy endings for some while bitter sweet for most. Where the second boo...

To resume this book in one word: overkill. Too much of the 'good' stuff and it becomes sickening. I had a saturation of battles and action-sequence with this one.

The climatic last third of Joe Abercrombie's Last Argument of Kings, is a fantastic sequence that the reader cannot help but read in one sitting. After the first two book's of The First Law trilogy this confluence of events is exactly what the series deserved in it's final volume, however leading u...

Not the conclusion I wanted to see, but still an extremely satisfying one. And "Best Served Cold" makes a lot more sense now.

Ah! Last volume of a trilogy, the final page is always turned with a sense of accomplishment, not that it was a long hard road getting there, Joe Abercrombie's writing is a breeze to read, though the breeze can be damn uncomfortable! Having read three longish books by him now with pleasure I can dec...

This really ended on a high note. Everything was so realistic to the characters yet not what Iw as expecting both at the same time. Greatest character building ever!
