My favourite read of the year so far by a long shot.  A quest-dtoven fantasy adventure with a good dose of humour. Quite dark at times, but not gratuitously grim like so much of modern fantasy. Works well as a standalone, but it seems like the author is also working on a sequel. Highly recommended for fans of Joe Abercrombie and Dungeons and Dragons!
