Last Argument of Kings

The third in Joe Abercrombie's The First Law trilogy, this one really picks up the paces. All the threads from the first two books are brought together in a rather epic battle. The first two dragged a bit - they were good, but a bit on the long side for the amount of story in them. This one packed a wallop - characters getting killed left, right, and centre; other characters having their backgrounds revealed or their destiny unveiled. A very satisfying conclusion to the series.
