About this listen
Shy South comes home to her farm to find a blackened shell; her brother and sister have been stolen and she's going to have to return to her bad old ways if she's ever going to see them again. She sets off in grim pursuit with only her cowardly old step-father Lamb for company. But it turns out he's hiding a bloody past of his own. None bloodier.
Their journey will take them across the lawless plains, to a frontier town gripped by gold fever, through feuds, duels and massacres, and high into unmapped mountains to a reckoning with ancient enemies, and force them into alliance with Nicomo Cosca, infamous soldier of fortune...and a man no one should ever have to trust…
Steven Pacey is best known for his role as Del Tarrant in the third and fourth seasons of the sci-fi series Blake's 7.
He has worked extensively in Theatre, TV and film for many years and in 2009 played opposite Graham Norton in La Cage Aux Folles at London's Playhouse Theatre. He has read numerous audiobooks including Joe Abercrombie's First Law Trilogy, Best Served Cold and The Heroes, and abridged titles by Matthew Reilly.

The best fantasy western ever.
I loved this book. Best blending of fantasy and a western ever. Fast paced, plenty of action, twists and turns, revenge and laugh out loud moments. These characters are awesome bastards, all of them.
If you love a great story really well told and narrated to perfection, have a listen to this book. Steven Pacey's 'Nicomo Cosca' is the bloody best!

Western didn’t quite work
Loved the characters as usual but framing it as a western made seem inconsistent. Framing it around expansion into the Russian steps would been more consistent with the rest of the First Law world.

Another wonderfully rich Abercrombie tale.
Delve deep into JA’s world with this action packed story involving some of my favourite characters (old and new), with a distinct Wild West flavour.
Pacey is simply a phenomenal narrator. Thank you for the entertainment.

Another Winner
As always Stephen Pacey's performance was fabulous and the series is as captivating as ever. Highly recommended to listen to every story as there's always so much happening and the characters are so brilliantly portrayed

Pacey reads or I don’t buy it.
Steven Pacey has ruined all other audiobooks for me. He is so good I do not want to hear anyone else read.
Also the book itself was brilliant as expected from Joe.

A Nearly Perfect Modern Novel
It's low-fantasy meets Western. Red Country rewards long time First Law readers, but is an excellent stand alone book as well.
Stephen Pacey does an incredible job as a narrator. The best I've heard.
If you want a thoughtful, adult book, I highly suggest it.

Abercrombie and Pacey continue to excel
If you've listened to the rest of the series up to this point, you know what you're in for. More of the same, in the best way.
Pacey remains at the top of his game, giving another masterful performance.

The best yet!
So many good payoffs from his earlier stories. He seems to causally create such interesting characters.
