Holy shit, I feel like I live with these characters, like they are in my home with me, like I’m laughing along with their jokes. The scenes are perfectly filled with palpability, sounds are audible as if the room is actually filled with them, and I find my attention constantly tugged toward the pages. So much fun. I don’t know if it’s everyone’s cup of tea, but god damn it is it mine.

Joe Abercrombie, has undoubtedly outdone himself on dialogue, my god how incredible these character interactions are. Truly like cinema of the mind. I found the wording and speech pattern and prose to be a hard adjustment but within a few pages I quickly caught on and am hooked, I hope that continues. These characters. My god.
