A review by sergeus
Half the World by Joe Abercrombie

adventurous dark funny tense medium-paced

4.0

It's been a long time since I read book 1, so I only partially remember Yarvi. Thorn and Brand's story is a great one though.

I did enjoy the name of the book appearing a few times throughout, and it always felt natural.

Abercrombie always does a great job with worlds and characters that are cruel and when things go badly. There are definitely cruelties and unfortunate events in this story, but maybe less than I've come to expect. That's not a bad thing though. And I was rooting for Thorn and Brand throughout!

I'll definitely read the next one!
