A review by dromwald
Half a King by Joe Abercrombie

5.0

It was hard to put this one down. Abercrombie never disappoints me - a great story with a vividly painted background world peopled with very real characters, political machinations, love, betrayal and a dozen other emotions. I love Abercrombie's characters, often for their flaws not despite them and I'll be reading the next book in the series straight away, something I rarely in a series of books. Brilliant stuff!
