Publisher's summary

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 ...

One of the best narration ever

The series are one of a kind as much as the narration, it’s just amazing.

This was really good

As expected of Joe Abercrombie. Even after reading nine books of his he was still able to surprise me. Now I can't wait to see how he will torture all the old and new characters in the following books.

Also, Steven Pacey manages to make a great book even better.

Another great book

This book feels like it’s building to something big and I can not wait to find out what that is…

Mark of true quality reading

Joe doesn't let me down. I've been listening to all the audiobooks back to back and I'm in love with the style, world and most of all, the characters.
The new cast is well developed and interesting, it's hard to pick a favourite.
Super anxious to start the next book.
A true masterpiece of Grim-dark.
As always.

Packed with great characters.

The combination of Steven Pacey and Joe A is probably my favorite on audible, but because people have been giving this one worse reviews than usual, I doubted.

I'm glad i gave it a shot, because the entire book has been of lot of laughs and excitement. Its all about the characters, the bad attitudes and consequences, and it all ties up to something unexpected. I don't give a rats ass about what happens in the end, as long as I get to head more from these unfortunate, sorry, and sarcastic characters.

One of the best books I have ever read

Absolute delight fron start to finish, the performance was also masterful. Packed with action, humor, emotion, but also surprisingly delicate and philosophical. Ingenious book!
