jiewawa reviewed The Blade Itself by Joe Abercrombie
Enjoyable but feels too much like setup
3 stars
The First Law series has been recommended to me for a long time, and I finally decided to dive in. Abercrombie's reputation as a great character writer is well deserved, but the first book in the series is a bit light on plot. I will continue with the rest of the series, as I've heard that the plot gets better after the first entry.
