My review of The Blade Itself "A lighthearted feel good fantasy action comedy, in which you never have to be afraid for the protagonists."

I'm only 15% in but yeah ... the humour is really funny, but it's not overdone. I don't think it changes the gritty tone of the book, but I think it helps makes the dark fantasy more fun. Steven Erikson did the same thing in his Malazan Series
