So I finished the Blade Itself and absolutely loved it. Everything about the characters, the story and the way things developed really appealed to me. The whole grim dark reputation it has didn’t really come through for me so maybe that comes later in the trilogy. Granted, Glokta himself could be seen as a whole host of grim dark plots. Actually one of my favourite characters in it.
I have however had a nagging feeling of something unfinished and that is the Wheel of Time so I’ve been on a binge recently with me finally on the last book this week and I’ve absolutely steam rolled through it to this chapter. It’s just turned on Beast Mode. Kindle reckons it will take me nearly five hours to read this chapter. 😱 That’s longer than some books I’ve read.
