Luis Miguel luismtpinto — This book was very in the head of the main character and dark. It was interesting but also hard because it was so dark and hopeless in some ways. It's 1984ish is some ways if that makes sense. The main character has a secret apartment that he will do anything to protect and as he starts to protect it things spiral out of his control. I really enjoyed it but isn't a book I can just read for light-hearted escapism.

张 海旭 a7786116911086 — I don't like cookie-cutter stories, especially when it comes to fantasy. That goes for happy endings as well as dark ones. The main issue I take with this series is that after 1600+ pages, we're left with...nothing. No character development, no sense that anything major has occurred (and there are several wars fought over the course of the books). The fear of this started to creep up on me in the second book, in the Seinfeld-ian Quest for Nothing led by Bayaz and his crew. The third book seemed like it would be building to a crescendo - that the faith you put into the story for the prior 1000 pages would somehow pay off. Great evil would finally rear its ugly head. Plots would be uncovered. Vengeance would be gained. The world would change, at least in some small way. (view spoiler) It's strange, because Abercrombie is obviously a very capable author, and to his credit he kept me turning pages all the way to the end. But there were passages that I had to struggle through, convinced that everything was building to something grand, that a great payoff was just around the corner. Instead, I was left with the feeling that all of this could have been much better said and done in a stand-alone book rather than a three part epic. And (not really a spoiler) the ending is just a series of thinly-veiled "this isn't over yet!" moments, where no characters gain closure, but hints at future plot threads are revealed. I'm not asking for sunshine and lollipops, but I do want to feel that my journey over these three books meant something, led to something, made me feel something other than... ennui?
