4.0

Pretty slow start, and some slow sections throughout. But the last quarter was fantastic.

The western setting is awesome. Abercrombie clearly loves his western stories and the inspiration bleeds through the pages.

Although most of my enjoyment did come from the appearance of a particular beloved character, the plot overall was good and the characters were entertaining per usual with First Law.
