If you have played the games, this ties things up pretty well. And its alot more compelling than i expected it to be.

One of the slowest of the series.

Revisado: 12-17-22

I’m a long time die hard fan of undying mercenaries and this one is good but very slow compared to others. Mostly we see the incompetence and insufferability of Galena Turov through this book. If BV had the goal of making sure everyone hated Turov, he surely succeeded on even the most dedicated lovers of Turov. She is the worst kind of person at every single turn throughout this story and we rarely learn anything important about her. Only little tidbits here and there. Basically Turov sucks and she needs to either get gone from the story, or get her comeuppance in some way. Without the decision being immediately reversed later on. I want to see McGill interact with interesting new characters and actually stand up for himself to Turov. The way she treated McGill in this book was proof that her character has got to go.

Always a pleasure

Revisado: 12-01-22

This is like my 5th time through the undying mercenary series, and I never seem to lose my excitement for it. If you have not listened to this series yet, do so. You’ll be glad you did.

As always, one of the best.

Revisado: 11-27-22

I have slowed down on audiobooks but undying mercs is a series I will never put down. Even if the series goes to book 100. Some things really are meant to last forever. City world is as fun as it is interesting. Some revelations into the politics of the magua and some hints on the old days too, the unification wars. I would love to see a spin off prequel about graves during the unification wars that BV Larson alludes to many times. This universe is one that is worth investing in and expanding on. I wish there were multiple spin offs set in this same universe. And I would love for the main series with McGill to keep going and going.

Exquisite..

Pure excellence. Bar none. Joe Abercrombie has proven himself a true master of fantasy and character development, though that was proven first with the blade itself.

Overly politically correct

Revisado: 11-07-19

Spoiler warning. Don’t read unless you’ve finished this book.


I’ve been keeping up with this series since Columbus Day released on audible. I really enjoy the book and I love the alien species and hierarchy. what I do not love at all, is the length C.A goes to in order to keep everything politically correct. Joe with Adams?!?!? What?!? Simms was the obvious choice for a romance with joe. All I can think of is the black tribal woman from the Conan the destroyer movie that came out in the 80s, having a puppy love romance with the new flash actor from the new justice league movie. It makes absolutely no sense. And it’s all for the sake of being politically correct and progressive. I hate that. Addams is a tough as nails gunnery sergeant from the marines and joe is an immature 20 something who I can only assume is supposed to be attractive but not overly so. Girls would call him cute but not gush over him. I don’t know, maybe it’s just me but this really throws me off. Especially in the home front audio drama, mid 40s sounding black woman flirting with young, goofy joe. Stupid. It’s probably too late to change this but I seriously hope Addams dies just so joe can end up with someone he’s compatible with.

Can’t get enough of Lord Grimdark!

I have listened to this book twice consecutively, within one week. And now I’m going back to the blade itself again for probably the fifth or sixth time of listening to the first law trilogy, and the third time going through the second trilogy. No book/s has ever given me the sense of nostalgia about the characters and heroes from the previous books like Abercrombie’s books. He’s easily the greatest fantasy writer since GRRM. As much as I love ASOIAF, I wish the first law trilogy was turned into an HBO show on the same scale as GOT. What a work of art that would be. As far as this book goes, it was incredible. I wasn’t expecting to feel that way however. The whole Victorian era setting is not my usual cup of tea. But it did not take away from the story at all here. At the risk of spending too much time on this review. If you are in doubts about getting A Little Hatred, stop doubting it and pick it up. You’ll be glad you did.

Amazing

Revisado: 11-24-17

If you like expeditionary force and can’t get enough of that, this will most certainly hold you over. Only once book in so far, maybe this series will overtake exfor. Who knows.

Broke my heart at the end.

Revisado: 06-24-17

Full grown man, just sad...sad about how this is the end of the bloody nine. We all know this is it. There won't be any more of him. Not in person at least. His name will be mentioned time and time again. But he won't be there. A mans got to be realistic...

Fantastic but slow.

Revisado: 06-15-17

The story and characters are amazing. We just need more of what is in the beginning more often through the books. Less of what was towards the end. (Avoiding spoilers) it's worth the read. And worth the credit.
