Its an awesome fantasy concept though- that those around massive magical events can experience some repercussions. As much as I like the character, what happened made sense in the world context.

Look at this fat skinny, ugly handsome motherfucker right here:

Geez, if you go on his website, he's pushing some internet poll to get votes for his books! (Everyone go vote for him! http://www.joeabercrombie.com/news/)

That Absolute fucker genius! His book is promised for next year and he hasn't even given us an update this week! FINISH THE BOOK, JOE! (You know, at your own pace.. You've already worked so hard lately, wouldn't want you to overdo it.)

I swear this guy is the Anti-GRRM..

Oh my god.. Joe Abercrobie is... Hot... :swoon: :swoon: :swoon: It's SO refreshing to say that after seeing GRRM's greasy mug all over the drat place.

Not really much else to add right now, but I really love this series. No other, not even Ice and Fire has made me yell 'Oh no!' and 'Holy poo poo! out loud as much as this one has.

I really love his style of writing too. I was laughing all the way through the Ferro/Logen sex scene .

is what i pictured bayaz as unconsciously

I was kinda iffy throughout the blade itself until i got to Logan straight up murdering all those practicals. i mean the book wasnt bad it just hadnt grabbed me until that point, it's probally one of the better fantasy fight scenes ive ever read.

It really can't be repeated enough that Joe Abercrombie can write one HELLUVA fight scene.
