A Conversation with Joe Abercrombie (Author of The First Law & Shattered Sea)
566Hi everyone! Today we have Joe Abercrombie, the author behind The First Law World, a big epic grimdark fantasy series consisting of The First Law trilogy, the Great Levellers trilogy, and The Age of Madness trilogy. The Wisdom of Crowds, the final book in the Age of Madness trilogy, comes out tomorrow on the 14th of September.
You all know that I consider Joe Abercrombie as one of my top favorite authors of all time; in novels, The First Law series in its entirety is my number one favorite grimdark fantasy series of all time. It's a great day for me; pardon my smiling throughout the video. Thank you so much to Gollancz for arranging this event. It means a lot to me that I get to do this conversation with him.
We chat about the next stage of The First Law series, catchphrases, characters, video games, favorite characters to write, battles scenes, and more. Please check the timestamps below to see when the spoiler-filled discussion occurred. I hope you'll enjoy watching the interview! :)
