It's a blast, so much fun, great world, great plot, insane characters. I was reading reviews when I finished that were saying it wasn't what people expected and that they were disappointed because of that, but I think it is one of my personal favorites.

I really enjoy the fantasy elements added into this world. To put it with as few spoilers as possible, on The First Law books, magic was this ancient, rare thing (mostly), and in this one, it's all in your face.

I am a recently made Joe Abercrombie fan and I will have to get to this new series eventually.

I believe it's a standalone novel, but not 100% certain on it.

I think he confirmed last year he's got the "first draft" of The Devils 2 complete or that he would by the end of the year, sometime around October.

Oh nice, I'm glad the story will continue after the first book!

I found the link on his site by the way: https://joeabercrombie.com/progress-report-august-25/

Super excited to see where it goes.
