The Heroes

De: Joe Abercrombie

Narrado por: Steven Pacey

They say Black Dow's killed more men than winter and clawed his way to the throne of the North up a hill of skulls. The King of the Union, ever a jealous neighbor, is not about to stand smiling by while he claws his way any higher. The orders have been given, and the armies are toiling through the northern mud. Thousands of men are converging on a forgotten ring of stones, on a worthless hill, in an unimportant valley, and they've brought a lot of sharpened metal with them.

Reseñas de la Crítica

" Lord of the Rings as directed by Kurosawa." ( Wall Street Journal)

"Magnificent, richly entertaining." ( Time)

"Abercrombie never glosses over a moment of the madness, passion, and horror of war, nor the tribulations that turn ordinary people into the titular heroes." ( Publishers Weekly)

Liked best served cold better

Love all his books but this felt the most shallow. Too much war and not enough of the larger universe

Fabulous

Abercrombie keeps me coming back for more with his hard-edged, morally questionable characters, and epic fantasy.

He is in my top five without question.

Engaging

Well read, love this series, look forward to continuing to listening to the conclusion of this vivid story.

So what studio will pick up Joe's work?

Amazing work, great story telling. Rich world. Action till your nose bleeds. Author would be a great pickup for HBO.

Bloody fantastic

Inexpressibly well written, and the performance was peerless. This book is one of the best I've ever read--anywhere. It is Joe Abercrombie's best so far, and impressive. I guess those are the times...

The best of the 3 stand alone novels so far

Possibly Abercrombie's best work yet, it's a better version of the first Northern war.

Hero’s is something special

Not many books are as entertaining, exciting, and fun as hero’s. I really enjoyed myself.

Amazing...

as always!!
Joe and Steven are a force to be reckoned with.
Fifteen words yet?

One of my favorite books of all time.

Incredible storytelling and narration. Works as a standalone but more enjoyable if you've read the earlier trilogy and best served cold to get the references.

Great

This series is one of the best I've ever read!! I can't wait to read the last book of the first law series
