Before They Are Hanged - Joe Abercrombie

[Joe Abercrombie]

I must admit I didn't enjoy The Blade Itself very much.

Aaaaaaargh, my eyes!

Well I am not sure which book it was that I didn't enjoy but it wasn't The Blade Itself.

Hurrah!

Joe's a heck of a writer!^^

Obviously I concur.

As for the theories . . . I couldn't possibly comment. But I'm glad you're all enjoying the series. Long may that continue.

I have to say, it's one of the few books I've ordered from Amazon, UK. Am looking forward to the next installment. March 2008, hurry up and arrive!

I'm distracting the wait with Stan Nicholls' Quicksilver Twilight^^
Can hardly put it away!
Seems I've got a thing for fantasy/sci-fi with a political matter these days..

But hey, only 6-7 months left!^^

I'm probably late to this thread but hey.
Just finished Before they are hanged and have to agree they're both pretty excelent books, couldn't put them down. My only quibble is that there's no viewpoint from the 'baddies' point of view. There's so much that could be written about the likes of Khalul, Bethod, and the Gurkish Emperor that it's a bit annoying
Anyway, I too feel that Quai is not all he seems to be and the most obvious explenation is that he's been seduced to the dark side by Khalul, I don't think he's an eater as Bayaz, Yulwei etc would probably been able to tell.
I.ve already ordered Last argument and it's been despatched, so not long now and i can find out, Hurrah.

On a last note, Loving Sand Dan Glokta, always brings a smile to my face

I have just one question about this book ... why oh why does it have to be with different dimensions from the first book ?
