Joe Abercrombie - The Blade Itself


Gollancz, 2006, 515 pages
ISBN: 978-05707-9793
Read November 2019, age 41

First Law trilogy, Book 1

A decent book, but definitely the first of a trilogy.  Nothing much really happens, other than a team being assembled.  As a stand-alone book, it wasn't much good, but there's a bunch of potential for the actual story.

I didn't find it particularly adult or dark, other than one character being an inquisitor in the vein of the worst of the Spanish Inquisition.

Rating: 3
