Syd’s Notes & Highlights

Book cover for Last Argument of Kings (The First Law, #3)
Last Argument of Kings (The First Law, #3) by Joe Abercrombie
6 highlights
Proof is boring. Proof is tiresome. Proof is an irrelevance. People would far rather be handed an easy lie than search for a difficult truth, especially if it suits their own purposes.
