Return to the Circle of the World in Before They Are Hanged, the second book in Joe Abercrombie’s First Law trilogy. Bayaz leads an uneasy band toward the edge of the known world, Colonel West faces a brutal campaign in the North, and Glokta is sent to defend a city that may already be doomed. The result is an epic grimdark fantasy filled with sharp dialogue, shifting loyalties, hard choices, and unforgettable antiheroes. This hardcover continues the story begun in The Blade Itself and sets the stage for Last Argument of Kings.
