Well, I finished the book! Glokta had a fantastic ending, his last talk with West, and Pike being Rews! Didn’t expect that! I wish we got to hear Sult’s secrets, though.
Jezal had a decent end, he seems a decent King!
West, I’ll assume he’s dead. Dogman as speaker, and Ferro, wherever she is.
Logan had a pretty bit of an ambiguous end, betrayed by Dow and jumping off a cliff into a river. Cliffhanger indeed.

Bayaz being such a dick these last few chapters lmaooo, and Logan tbf too. I don’t like how he treated Grim or the Dogman. Didn’t expect Dogman to call him out for Tul or stand up for him either.
But Bayaz standing on Logan, pushing him down into the vomit was something else.
Also I’m sad Ferro and Logan didn’t reunite :(

GLOKTA AND ARDEE? AAA
That chapter was amazing, I was so scared he was going to do it, kill her. But he pulls out a ring! And she said yes! It may be a business arrangement, but their kiss made me tear up a little.
I was worried for West when he was caught up in Bayaz’s chaos. But now he got the sickness. Please don’t die, please don’t die. I was worried he would so many times, please not now.

Shhhhhiiiit. That ‘Answers’ chapter might top ‘Questions’ as Glokta’s best.
Finding out Severard was a traitor, I think we were meant to work that one out ourselves, but I never expected Frost to be one too. I also love Cosca!
But Answers is incredible. Bayaz was truly behind everything and had been for a long time! The true puppeteer. “And blah, blah fucking blah”- Great Glokta line.

The Siege of Adua is over, it was incredible.
Ferro and Bayaz’ were fascinating. The twist of Quai was shocking, I knew something was up, but not what.
Bayaz uses the Seed! That was a perfect climax! RIP Yulwei.
“You’re the best man I know”. Top 3 scene, and to put Grims funeral right after, Logan. Love him but, crashing the funeral after disregarding him while dying. My opinion changed a bit. RIP GRIM!!

This book is my favourite in the series. And the one that pushed it over ASOIAF to take my number one spot as favourite fantasy series.
Glokta and Logan are my favourites. Whilst the Battle of the High Places and the Battle of Carleon, with the Bloody Nine defeating Bethod and the Fierced, my favourite sequence so far.
I love how Joric reverted to his old self, great writing. Let the Siege of Adua begin!

Finished Part 1!
Poor Jezal, I wish he would’ve ended up with Ardee, the Princess of Talins is quite a handful.
Dogman, West and Logan… omg. Poor Tul he did not deserve that, and for the BloodyNine to then split apart Crummock’s son? Such a shocking end to—potentially— the best action sequence Id ever read: the Battle of the High Places.
Glokta seems in danger from multiple sides.

Loving it so far.
King Jezal! I saw it coming! Bayaz was grooming him.
I loved his tantrum to the closed council, i hope he does right by Ardee.
Logan and the Dogman may have the most exciting plot so far this book. Crummocks base has me worried for their safety, though.
I hope with West now as Lord Marshall, he’ll go to their rescue.
Glokta is, of course, always amazing. I love that Cosca is back.

So far this has had the strongest start in the series, with Glokta’s starting POV being gripping and a great callback to his first chapter in TBI. Logan, Dogman and West so far have the most intriguing story, with Logan back with his crew of Named Men.
Jezal and Bayaz are so far leading towards a crowning for Jezal?
Quai doesn’t trust Bayaz which is interesting.
I am curious on what Ferro is going to do.
