Currently listening to Joe Abercrombie's 'last argument of kings' audiobook, read by Steven Pacey, and I've just come to the part where Harding Grim has died. This is truly upsetting, and I am kind of bereaved :(
Also on edge are my nerves, my nails are frayed because I have been biting them, while I go about listening to the Gurkhul vs Union battle scene, which is now a medley of suspense, hand wringing anxiety, lip biting restlessness and blood curdling violent imagery which so perfectly fits the malice, intrigue, betrayal, vengeance and loyalty that is drawn in this book..and particularly in the battle chapters, where everything is confusion in a bloodied cauldron, as so common with wars.
I love how different storylines are sometime merging, sometimes deflecting and somehow still totally unaware of other character plots.
Onwards and upwards now..
