It gladdens me wholeheartedly to say that A Little Hatred successfully exceeded my high expectations, to say the least. Honestly, A Little Hatred and Dark Age by Pierce Brown-which I’ll read after I post this review-are two of my most anticipated books of the year to say that I’m excited about reading these books are a huge understatement. A Little Hatred is the first book in The Age of Madness trilogy by Joe Abercrombie chronologically this is the eight-seventh if you exclude Sharp Ends anthology-installment in his First Law World series. Red Country was first published on October 2012 it’s been seven years since Abercrombie released a novel within his First Law World series. Always seems like magic, that something can feel so good but cost nothing.” “Nothing like being wanted, is there? Wanted by someone you want. Make some time for it, not only it’s a brilliant trilogy, but you’ll also be doing a huge disservice to the book and most of all your reading experience if you don’t do it. Do yourself a favor and make sure you read The First Law trilogy first before you start A Little Hatred, I even binge reread the entire trilogy to make sure that I can start this book with refreshed information. Reading A Little Hatred without knowledge of the previous books would be a similar experience to reading Pierce Brown’s Iron Gold without reading his previous three books or reading Robin Hobb’s Tawny Man trilogy without reading Farseer trilogy first.

Let me begin by saying that although this is a new series in the First Law World and you can technically start your journey into this world here, it’s quite mandatory to read at least The First Law trilogy in order to fully appreciate the intricacies of this book even better if you’ve also read Best Served Cold and The Heroes. Grim, dark, fun, and glorious A Little Hatred is irrefutably worth the wait. I have a Booktube channel now! Subscribe here: ĪRC provided by the publisher-Gollancz-in exchange for an honest review.
