    REVIEW – Among Thieves by M.J. Kuhn

    December 11, 2021 /

    Among Thieves is the Money Heist Vs Assasins Creed mashup that we didn’t know we needed. MJ Kuhn talks to her readers like they are in the room with her. She’s sitting them down and talking about an idea she has, an idea of stealing a powerful relic and convincing us all it’s a great idea. She shares her wisdom with us in a dark and hypnotic fashion.  Whilst reading Among Thieves I had many “aha moments, damn this is good and how can I be a part of this amazing group?”  A lot resonated with me – putting on a front to hide the inner despair of a broken…

    Review: The Wisdom of Crowds by Joe Abercrombie

    October 15, 2021 /

    The Wisdom of Crowds by Joe Abercrombie feels like his life’s work taking its earned place on the top of the pedestal.  It feels like the end of an era with the First Law Series having its final curtain call.  As with any much-beloved series, it’s hard to close that final chapter and say goodbye to the scheming, betrayals, and bloodshed.  It’s hard to know sometimes which way Abercrombie will take his characters and what end they’ll be dealt but trust in the author and his vision because it’s worth the ride and I believe that every character got the ending they needed. “Debauchery is profitable under any government” The…

    Review: The Trouble with Peace by Joe Abercrombie

    October 3, 2021 /

    The Trouble with Peace is Abercrombie’s best book to date.  Dark.  Bloody.  Utterly hypnotic.  How on earth do you review something flawless, something so resolutely perfect?  A story that details the travesty of war, the brutality of love, and the burden of power.  Peace can be glorious but the truth is told – it is rarely the peace a nation would come to know.  Enemies in the shadows, whispers in the halls, treason is never far from the mind. “We’re all like children, Rikke. The older you get, the more you realize the grown-ups won’t suddenly walk in and set things right. You want things right, you have to put…

    Review: A Little Hatred by Joe Abercrombie

    September 27, 2021 /

    A Little Hatred is a story that relishes and thrives being in the darkness.  It’s a leveling up from The First Law Trilogy.  The achievements have been collected, the characters have grown and the bloody destruction continues.  Although this is technically a new series, I do believe that your reading enjoyment will be enriched by reading the First Law Trilogy.  The backstories and journeys will be far more satisfying if you do so.  A Little Hatred is like nothing I have read before, I do think that it even surpasses his fantastic first law series – which Is saying something because I loved it!  Abercrombie has settled into his writing,…

    Review: Red Country by Joe Abercrombie SPOILERS!!

    September 9, 2021 /

    Red Country for me anyway, was a bit of a departure for the First Law Series.  I was very excited at the prospect of a western type fantasy novel but it fell flat.  Why do you ask?  Firstly, it was slow as all hell.  I understand that a new novel based in an entirely new area needs build-up but it just failed to grasp my imagination, unlike, the previous novel, The Heroes.  Also, Abercrombie is renowned for his stellar characterisations, but, one character, in particular, Cosca ended up falling, it isn’t what was expected from him. He ended up turning a bit sociopathic and child-killing is something I thought that…

    Review: The Heroes by Joe Abercrombie

    September 5, 2021 /

    “Armour …’ mused Whirrun, licking a finger and scrubbing some speck of dirt from the pommel of his sword, ‘is part of a state of mind … in which you admit the possibility … of being hit.”― Joe Abercrombie, The Heroes What kind of magic does Joe Abercrombie spin?  From first reading The Blade Itself I have become entranced at both his unparalleled skill of taking a small minor character and transforming them into huge players of the game, he also is a supreme creator of intricate plots.  This has been my favorite installment of the series by far, the NORTH fascinates me.  I loved the POV’s from Logen, dogman, and Black…
