Best Served Cold by Joe Abercrombie
… Reading Joe Abercrombie is always bittersweet for me — I know I’m going to get an amazing story with unique characters told in Abercrombie’s special way. But the wonderful writing comes with a price: you change a little. His books have altered my perception of fantasy literature. Read the rest.
I am hoping to get to this book in 2010. I have read the first book, First Law, in the trilogy. I have the other two sitting here to be read as well. I really enjoyed it and look forward to the next two and this one as well. Thank you for the great review. I knew this book was a stand alone but wanted to read his trilogy first because it is the same world and wanted to get to know that world better first. I am really looking forward to this one as well.
Once you finish the trilogy be sure to stop by and let us know how you liked it. I’m always curious as to how various fantasy fans react to Abercrombie’s books. Hope the review was helpful.
I will have to make a point to stop back by after the trilogy. I am actually getting anxious to get into book 2. I have been reading it along with a friend so I am trying to wait for her. I don’t know if I can wait much longer.
The review was a great help. I am more glad now that I decided to read the trilogy before diving into Best Served Cold. This review helps make me feel better on the choice and now I really look forward to the book more. Thanks!
