5.0

I am reeling. I am sitting in a corner crying. I am not OK.

The last book in The Age of Madness has me clutching at my heart.

The main families in this war or rebellion or coup if you will are the Brocks, the Glokta’s, the Dogman and Rikke, Black Calder and Stour Nightfall, and the lone Orso dan Luther.

One man agains a snake pit of society climbers and power hungry business men and women.

There is no one loyal left.

The Union is crumbling, the North is unifying, and society has long been drowning in its own filth.

Behind the scenes the Weaver is waging his own war against the banks, burning down whole worlds just to get to its destruction.

I love this series so much.

It’s even better than the first trilogy.

I need Abercrombie to write more books in this universe.
