The Heroes
A compendium of everything Abercrombie does best: characterization, dark humour, and blood-drenched barbarians swinging axes and gutting enemies through putrid, mud infested battlegrounds. Bayaz is a joy to hate, Shivers is officially worthy of his name, and the surprising return of Bremer dan Gorst, who reappears to take his place amongst my favourite bitter, self-pitying, blood thirsty characters.
