Sinossi
Mercenari ubriaconi, eroi pericolosamente schizofrenici, stregoni che gestiscono banche micidiali come eserciti, scalcinate compagnie di guerrieri, cortigiane e soldati. Spadaccini boriosi e donne che conquistano il potere col ferro e col veleno. Sangue, polvere, sudore. Il Nord gelido e nebbioso dei clan e le menzogne delle corti principesche del Sud. E oro, oro, e oro, più crudele dell'acciaio, più potente della magia nera. Questo è il mondo di Joe Abercrombie... Tornano i protagonisti dei romanzi della «Prima Legge», svelando nuovi dettagli su chi credevamo già di conoscere, dal deforme Inquisitore Glokta a Novedita il Sanguinario, dalla condottiera Murcatto all'irresistibile Nicomo Cosca, soldato di ventura e voltafaccia senza scrupoli. E poi compaiono anche nuovi personaggi e ambientazioni, come la strana coppia composta da Shev, ladra con un debole per le belle ragazze, e Javre, l'inarrestabile Leonessa di Hoskopp, braccate da nemici implacabili e da una irresistibile tendenza a cacciarsi nei luoghi peggiori del mondo.

3.5/5 Stars Sharp Ends , the ultimate collection of tales from The First Law World by Joe Abercrombie, is a great dessert to provide insights and background for most of the previously established characters in the past six novels.

This was a great collection of twisted short stories. It’s Abercrombie at his best. I’ve reviewed each one individually: A Beautiful Bastard- 5/5- I feel like I’ve been waiting for this story for a long time. If you’ve read The First Law Trilogy then you’ll know what an ugly bastard Glockta is. H Leggi tutto
4/5 Buddy read with my lovely friend; Petrik So my phone kinda deleted all the notes I had written down to write this review. Clearly the world hates me right now. Also I see a lot of people starting their First Law journey with this Anthology or one of the standalones.. Why do they do this? Please rea Leggi tutto
Even better than I expected. Loved meeting the old characters and find out new sides to the known events. I wish all short-stories collections were that good.

Нова чудесна порция превъзходни истории от Джо. Срещнах се със стари любимци, появиха се и нови, непознати ми до сега. Джавра, Лъвицата от Хоскоп официално измести от сърцето ми като най-любима героиня Змията на Талинс. :) Не би било зле да видим цяла книга за нея. Е, и на още една за Монцкаро Муркато Leggi tutto
I now have a YouTube channel that I run with my brother, called 'The Brothers Gwynne'. Check it out - The Brothers Gwynne “The greater a man's power swells, the smaller his good qualities shrivel” So, Sharp Ends is a compilation of short stories set in the world of the First Law by Joe Abercrombi Leggi tutto
It sure was refreshing to be back in the World of the First Law. While I didn't give all of these stories a high star rating, I have missed Abercrombie's writing style. His stories are always filled with dark humor, bloody scenes, and great characterization. I laughed out loud or cringed countless t Leggi tutto
