Joe Abercrombie cannot write a bad character.

Even the shittiest person he can think of is still wildly entertaining and unique. He is truly one of the best fantasy writers.

One of the few comic books I had to double back on a few times to understand the stories... and even then I'm still not sure I understood them.

Beautiful art. Great themes and deep cuts I only understood after going on Reddit to figure out what the hell was going on.

Found this peeking out of a corner at the local library.

What an incredibly enjoyable find. With only a few books, still able to provide interesting characters, great twists and turns, and an insane amount of charm in a small package. The red info boxes and Herb's journaling make the story really stand out and the art is next level.

Highly recommend.
