The saga comes to an end in book three of First Law. A fulfilling end. Joe ties all the threads pretty nicely and still leaves some yarn hanging for readers who have come to feel so close to the characters. I read the three books pretty fast, as I've mentioned in the last two posts. Because the books are meant to be read fast, you WANT to turn the pages and find out what happens next. The stories of all the characters wrap up nicely. I wanna talk about them, but that's for you to find out. You can find spoilers elsewhere on the net ;) Whatever happens to Logen Ninefingers, Black Dow, Dogman, Ferro, Jezel, Bayaz, and Glokta is unexpected and satisfying to a great degree. I've read few books which manager to induce such sense of gratification after the last page is turned.
I read some shitty books last year, that were a waste of my time, but this year seems to be shaping up nicely. I'm almost done with reading Heroes by Abercrombie and I really don't know what to pick up next.
If you have any suggestions, please do leave them in comments!
