Last Argument Of Kings
A beautiful, collectible new hardback edition of one of the greatest fantasy novels of the past decade.
The end is coming.
Logen Ninefingers might only have one more fight in him, but it's going to be a big one. Battle rages across the North, the King of the Northmen still stands firm, and there's only one man who can stop him: his oldest friend and his oldest enemy. It's past time for the Bloody-Nine to come home.
With too many masters and too little time, Superior Glokta is fighting a different kind of war. A secret struggle in which no one is safe, and no one can be trusted. His days with a sword are far behind him. It's a good thing blackmail, threats, and torture still work well enough.
Jezal dan Luthar has decided that winning glory is far too painful, and has turned his back on soldiering for a simple life with the woman he loves. But love can be painful too, and glory has a nasty habit of creeping up on a man when he least expects it.
While the King of the Union lies on his deathbed, the peasants revolt, and the nobles scramble to steal his crown. No one believes that the shadow of war is falling across the very heart of the Union. The First of the Magi has a plan to save the world, as he always does. But there are risks. There is no risk more terrible, after all, than to break the First Law...
Last Argument of Kings by Joe Abercrombie is a gripping tale of power, conflict, and the high price of war. Dive into this thrilling conclusion to uncover paths forged in blood, secrets, and destiny.
