Absolutely solid second book. Doesn’t for a single page suffer from second book syndrome. The characters, already loveable and hateable as they are, are just so much more of everything in the best way possible. The plot is nothing big but Abercrombie’s writing make it feel as epic as LOTR. I would snort Abercrombie’s prose if I could.
