A review by ezrasupremacy
The Trouble with Peace by Joe Abercrombie

rating tbd

i have to admit, i was a bit bored throughout the first half of the book, but the latter half more than made up for it.

i can’t say i predicted for anything to end the way it did, bloody hell, mr. abercrombie truly has the ability to have things only get worse and worse with every book, rather than better — can’t say i’ve seen that much before in the books i’ve read, so i would call it a refreshing change, but unfortunately it just makes me even more mad at some of the characters. great shock, i know.

i really expected leo to be my favourite character even before i started reading this, but unfortunately i have no mind for stupid characters, and by God, that man is stupid. i really expected to not like jezal’s son, but he ended up being my favourite character by far, with rikke second. who would’ve thought?

after all that’s been built up the past two books has come crashing down, i cannot help but wonder how much worse things will get in the next book. i hope the breakers win this thing and the union turns into a democracy. maybe someone finally gets rid of that bastard bayaz. a guy can dream, can’t he?
