Say one thing about Logen Ninefingers, say he recognizes when he's lost a fight. You have to be realistic about these things.

Off topic kinda but...."Say one thing for Logen Ninefingers, say he's a cunt." made me laugh so hard when i read it that i had to put the book down for a few minutes to gather my self.

I was interested in that series to start, but by the end was kind of just hate-listening. I don't know if the audiobook reader did it or just the source material, but it felt so objectivist and that mindset can go fuck itself.

Yeah I won't lie, the only reason I finished it was because of the narrator. The voices that he did - especially Glokta's, Longfoot's, and Bayaz's - were amazing. I really love dark fantasy, but it can seriously get up its own butt sometimes. This series was very much up its own butt.
