The Heroes is hard to beat, man. Did they give any teases of who Lamb was early on? I didn't get it until the very end, the first time I read this. I was not prepared 😂 And what a juxtaposition, to name him Lamb given his reputation in the North 😂
I caught clues to Lamb's identity right from the beginning, but I enjoyed how Abercrombie NEVER actually identifies him. It was like secret, shared knowledge between the author and the reader. Loved it!
@@FantasyfortheAges haha, I'm in the middle of a re-read of First Law, I'm on LAoK. Will have to keep an eye out for the hints when I get to Red Country!
Now, now, Joe had a short story collection come out in late 2023, novella length (four short stories related to his Age of Madness Trilogy), so it's not been as bad as all that. Look for The Great Change (and Other Lies): t.ly/TrCSB

And for the same reason, I never name Lamb any other way than Lamb in my review. Heh, heh, heh.

Both are so damn good. ❤
My favorite of all his books
Love it! Totally solid.
Abercrombie has caught the Rothfuss disease: no releases in past 24+ months.
