the wisdom of crowds joe abercrombie release date

Which isn’t to say that I don’t have my criticisms. Whether this trilogy is better than the first will be a matter of personal opinion, but if you ask me? Absolutely. A Little Hatred may have been my favourite ever series opener, and I waxed lyrical about The Trouble with Peace. I’ve praised the books in this series to no end. The Wisdom of Crowds is now out! The ninth book in Abercrombie’s cynical-though-charismatic First Law world brings an end to the most recent trilogy. Namely, the state of the revolution by the third book! Note: I’ve tried to keep this review as spoiler-free for the trilogy as a whole as I can, but there are some aspects that I couldn’t word my way around.

The banks have fallen, the sun of the Union has been torn down, and in the darkness behind the scenes, the threads of the Weaver’s ruthless plan are slowly being drawn together. while Black Calder gathers his forces and plots his vengeance. And in the bloody North, Rikke and her fragile Protectorate are running out of allies. Orso will find that when the world is turned upside down, no one is lower than a monarch. With nothing left to lose, Citizen Brock is determined to become a new hero for the new age, while Citizeness Savine must turn her talents from profit to survival before she can claw her way to redemption. Now that belief will be tested in the crucible of revolution: the Breakers and Burners have seized the levers of power, the smoke of riots has replaced the smog of industry, and all must submit to the wisdom of crowds.

Some say that to change the world you must first burn it down.
