Amazing. My favorite book in one of my all time favorite series.

A masterpiece. Joe Abercrombie is one of the best authors I've come across in a long time. His books are an amazing blend of cynicism and humor in a fantasy setting. If you're looking for a fresh take on the fantasy genre, look no further.

Best of Abercrombie. Well written, descriptive, and fun, without being long winded. One of my favorites.

Wow.. What a great read. I hadn't read a book so enjoyable in many years. Characters are great and the world they live in believable. My only regret is I started with this book, now I will have to read from the beginning of the series. I guess there could be worse things to look forward to. If you don't read this book straight through, the mud with you!

Delightfully bloody. Joe Abercrombie's writing style is by far my favorite. I haven't enjoyed a single writers complete published writings like his ever!

Great book!. Abercrombie tells a great story... I hope another book is coming soon!

When your craving some medieval warfare. Absolutely fantastic writing. Plenty of violence, blood and grit! I highly recommend the audio version. Steven Pacey reads with such vigor and emotion, really makes the story come to life!

So good, and you might have noticed…. Really enjoyed this, as I have the other Abercrombie books I’ve read so far. But there’s something about this one I’m surprised hasn’t seemed to come up yet in user reviews. This book is like a sword-fantasy version of Michael Shaara’s novel “The Killer Angels” (and Jeff Shaara’s two books around it) which paints the battle of Gettysburgh from multiple points of view. Not only does Heroes use a similar format about a similar (but fictional) campaign, but Abercrombie actually sneaks in details from the Civil War battle. Notice that it’s North vs. South. One side is called the Union. The maps are depicted in the way Civil War maps are. There are names of officers eerily similar to Civil War leaders (Meed, etc.). Neither side is painted as good or bad, but you find yourself sympathizing with characters on either side. I’m sure there are other details I’ve missed, but it looks to me like Abercrombie was having fun recreating Shaara’s vision of Gettysburg in a sword-fantasy setting. And he did so, I think, with the same degree of brilliance. I loved it.
