El objetivo de todo gobierno es cargar el descontento en quienes sean menos capaces de hacerte sufrir por ello.

4.5⭐️

God bless el volver a la prosa y personajes de Abercrombie, y que ello se acompañe de mi mood leer fantasía épica en verano.

It's so good to be back in the world of the First Law. This is an exciting start to a trilogy that seems as though it will be about modernization, haves and have-nots, and the legacies set by previous generations (most of whom were featured in Abercrombie's previous books). Like the First Law Trilogy, this book stands alone, but it will no doubt fit together into a greater whole once as the series continues.

Still pretty good, but I wanted more than just another war between the Union and the North.

A Little Hatred is a character driven novel that continues the ongoing saga of the Union’s conflict with the untamed north. Many elements in the book will be familiar to readers who have enjoyed Abercombie’s other excellent works. The First Magi, Bayaz, is still pulling strings from the shadows, and the rest of the world is still dancing to the grim tune of war.

Much like the beginning of the First Law trilogy, A Little Hatred has a bit of a meandering start. The novel features a large cast and the opening hundred pages of so are mostly a means of acquainting us with the personalities that will populate the rest of the story. Even though the inciting incident immediately sets the stage for a rekindled war between the North and the Union, I still didn’t feel like I knew what this novel was really about for at least a hundred pages. And that’s fine. Abercrombie is setting the stage for something bigger…I hope. There is a lot of talk about Ghurkish immigration throughout the story which I hope is setting the stage for conflict an order of magnitude grander than another squabble between the north and the Union. But at this point I can only speculate. I do feel like the north/union struggle is ground that has been trampled back to the mud, and I’d like to see Abercrombie push past that safety net into uncharted waters...

yes i am that girl, with the trashy fantasy cover in the train >.<

slap me if im wrong, but Abercrombie serves.
There are so many (two) characters (boys) that are strikingly annoying
But before you can throw the book, all the other characters be already roasting.

by the gods, this was such a pleasure read
