About this listen

WAR. POLITICS. REVOLUTION.
THE AGE OF MADNESS HAS ARRIVED . . .

'Funny and sardonic, violent and compelling' Guardian

'A tale of brute force and subtle magic on the cusp of an industrial revolution ... Buckle your seat belts for this one' Robin Hobb

* * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

On the battlefields of the North, the next generation of would-be heroes rushes to make the same bloody mistakes as the last.

While the age of the machine dawns, the age of magic refuses to die. One might glimpse the future, through the curse of the Long Eye, but changing it is another matter altogether.

The chimneys of industry rise, the cities seethe with opportunity, and even kings must kneel before the new power of the banks. But in the slums, anger is brewing, and soon it will boil over with a rage that all the money in the world cannot control . . .

Introducing a cast of unforgettable new characters, A LITTLE HATRED begins a new First Law trilogy which will have you gripped from the very start ...

Another brilliant Abercrombie

Another brilliant combination of Abercrombie and Pacey! Grimdark action-packed, class, race, love, war, fashion, bonking… & a little bit of witchcraft! What more could you ask for?

I’m jumping straight into Book 2!

As good as always.

I was a bit hesitant to start another Joe Abercrombie series. How could he maintain such a high standard?

Well, he has, Absolutely intriguing characters, humorous side lines, and fantastic fantasy!

Can't wait for the next book!

Entertaining return to form , well performed

great new characters, particularly the women, and just enough sprinklings of past characters to offer familiarity/continuity of the early trilogy. Very funny, dark and gritty. I liked the entry into industrial revolution. Excellent performance, nailed the humor and provided great accents. Look forward to next installment

A little Abercrombie

Really enjoyed this book and the narrator is also amazing. It’s great to be back into the main world after the side novels.

A nihilistic grimdark tale of the year

Abercrombie returns to form with realistically depicted bastards of a set of characters set in an industrial grim dark reality.

A New Epic

An excellent work with well-developed characters that sets the scene for the books to come. Multi-layered and rich, with dark humour, tragedy and action. I particularly enjoy how Abercrombie shys away from doing the expected. Read masterfully, as always, by Steven Pacey.
