Publisher Description

A fragile peace gives way to conspiracy, betrayal, and rebellion in this sequel to the New York Times bestselling A Little Hatred from epic fantasy master Joe Abercrombie.

"A master of his craft." —Forbes
 "No one writes with the seismic scope or primal intensity of Joe Abercrombie." —Pierce Brown
 Peace is just another kind of battlefield . . . Savine dan Glokta, once Adua's most powerful investor, finds her judgement, fortune and reputation in tatters. But she still has all her ambitions, and no scruple will be permitted to stand in her way. For heroes like Leo dan Brock and Stour Nightfall, only happy with swords drawn, peace is an ordeal to end as soon as possible. But grievances must be nursed, power seized, and allies gathered first, while Rikke must master the power of the Long Eye . . . before it kills her. Unrest worms into every layer of society. The Breakers still lurk in the shadows, plotting to free the common man from his shackles, while noblemen bicker for their own advantage. Orso struggles to find a safe path through the maze of knives that is politics, only for his enemies, and his debts, to multiply. The old ways are swept aside, and the old leaders with them, but those who would seize the reins of power will find no alliance, no friendship, and no peace lasts forever. For more from Joe Abercrombie, check out: The Age of MadnessA Little HatredThe Trouble With Peace

Progress just means things get worse faster

Abercrombie delivers again and again what his reader’s hidden heart desires. A cynic’s look at the world outside our window. A pragmatist’s view of what alternatives could exist. An optimist’s view of who we can be. With every page the tempo quickens; and with each chapter’s conceit we find ourselves sharpened. “You have to be realistic” says the man Ill-equipped for the odyssey that awaits.

Couldn’t put it down

I’ve read all his other books in the series and this is his best yet. Timely and insightful, the strength of his characters continues to be the best part of the book. The fact that this series builds off the previous has only made it more rich. Can’t wait for the conclusion! If I had to list one regret, it’s that we haven’t heard from Shy yet. I’m hoping she’ll make an appearance in the next book.
