CORRECTION! The trilogy announced from Abercrombie won’t be a First Law trilogy. That was my bad. New series which I’m really excited for will be called The Devils.

Finally got my wife to start The Blade Itself. She’s disabled and uses a cane or walker to get around, and shortly after she gets to Glokta I hear her yell “YES!! F’ING STAIRS!!” 😂 Hooked her early

For anyone looking to get into these books I HIGHLY recommend the audiobooks narrated by Steven Pacey. His character voices are fantastic and he nails both the intensity and humor. Definitely my favorite audiobooks I’ve ever listened to. (I used Libby to rent them for free from my local library)

Say one thing for Logen Ninefingers. Say he's one of the best fantasy characters ever created. -- Logen Ninfingers could have kept the Fellowship together with his bare hands.

Blade Itself has THE most tragic loss in the series.

RIP cookpot

I accidentally read the Age of Madness Trilogy before The First Law. It was quite interesting to get the info the other way around, to have heard characters referencing past events and glorifying old heros in tales and then going back and getting the first hand accounts of those people and stories. Unlike when a prequel is written, and the past was based off of vague comments and generic statements having people talk about past events that were already fully fleshed out was interesting. Both trilogies are amazing and I recommend you give them a go!

First Law is a series that will forever be close to my heart. While I hate the "everyone is grey" arcs, Joe does it such justice that I still desire more character in my life. Glokta that crooked bastard is like crack to my feeble reader mind, and I wouldn't have it any other way.

Thanks for the amazing breakdown Daniel! All hail the Disheveled Goblin Lord!

I love this series. Moved on to age of madness this week. Also very good

[Nickfor]

Literally my favorite youtuber, everytime a Daniel Greene video pops up my cellphone I know that I HAVE to listen to it immediately

[stephenmcdonald]

Reading this series now!!! Just finished The Blade Itself and man.. what an awesome ride!!

[briangreco]

This was one of the best reviews I’ve ever seen. I love First Law

[dorgeousmac]

Almost finished his 1st book thanks to your videos. Sooo glad there's a bunch more to read and that Joe's young enough that many more will be out in the future

[jonbaxter]

I am forever grateful for Abercrombie because he got me back into fantasy after years of lulls. It got me back into my favourite niche! Also, I watched the interview here with Daniel as my first video on this channel and have been watching ever since.

[AlexAlexandrov]

This series was my favorite thing I've ever read. Can't recommend it enough <3

I would love such a breakdown for Dresden Files or Discworld. I know this would be a nightmare for you, seeing the sheer amount of entries in these two series. Also, Discworld is just Discworld, with multiple entry points and multiple overlapping but semi-independent series going on. But, I think this is also why breakdown videos on these two series are needed and would be so valuable.
PS Merphy just started Vinland. Seeing that Vinland won your poll too (I voted for it too), watching you two cover the same series at the same time would be fun.

[trevor]

I love that you included lore in this one. I'd be really interested to see either a rerelease or a companion video to the Malazan breakdown that includes some of the lore primer because I was really lost on that one.

[dutch_blades]

Just ordered the first trilogy and am excited to get started!

[mariob]

Not even a hundred pages in Before They Are Hanged, but I am in love with these characters and setting so far and wish I had more time to binge this series!! Can’t wait to get deeper into the world

[MrBreakdownBoy]

The Audible version of these books are absolutely amazing. Also the best example of character development I have ever seen.
