“Book Descriptions: Thinking man’s barbarian Logen Ninefingers struggles to escape his bloody past, war hero turned torturer Inquisitor Glokta struggles to control the treacherous present, and self-obsessed young nobleman Jezal dan Luthar struggles to snatch a golden future without doing any work at all. All three are drawn into the machinations of Bayaz, the legendary First of the Magi. But does he really want to save the world? Or are things more complicated than they appear?
The First Law is a trilogy that combines the best of fantasy – adventure, mystery, magic, and an epic scale – with realism, cynicism, visceral action, plenty of surprises, a focus on vivid characters, and a heavy dose of black humour. Murderous conspiracies rise to the surface, old scores are ready to be settled, bloody battles will be won and lost, and the line between hero and villain is sharp enough to draw blood. Unpredictable, compelling, and wickedly funny, The First Law is noir fantasy with a real cutting edge.
