To my mind this is a shame, as I believe this latest trilogy from Abercrombie is up there with the strongest work he’s done to date, being more focused and efficiently plotted than much contemporary epic fantasy. Abercrombie is a perennial favourite of ours at the SFFWorld forums, but it strikes me that this latest series has received a less than enthusiastic response compared to his previous novels set in the world of the First Law, with some treating the book, ostensibly marketed as YA, as being “Abercrombie-lite”.
Half a War by Joe Abercrombie marks the conclusion of his Shattered Sea trilogy.
