Last Argument Of Kings: Book Three (The First Law)

Product Information

Lord Chamberlain Hoff, a loud and impatient man who conducts the duties of the otherwise incapable king. Shortly after they meet, in a conversation with Bayaz he describes himself as being over 30 years of age, [4] which would mean he was born sometime around 540-545 AU. He blinked round at the jumble of slate roofs, the walls of old grey stone, black wood, dirty grey render, all greasy with the thin rain. This led to the creation of a landed elite, the gentry, whose standing was higher than that the freedmen enjoyed, but still below that of the nobility. I’ve no doubt the world would be a better place if I’d been killed years ago, but I haven’t been, and I don’t know why.

Last Argument Of Kings: Book Three (The First Law)

The world of the First Law collides with the industrial age in a new trilogy – The Age of Madness – which began in September 2019 with A Little Hatred, continued a year later with The Trouble With Peace and concludes in September 2021 with The Wisdom of Crowds. The titles of the works derive from various sources, including real-world quotes or phrases, and in-world references. Bethod himself escapes the rout and takes refuge in Carleon, surrounded by The Union, the rebel Northmen, and Crummock's hillmen. In fact, a recurring article presented in the Imperial Conclaves is the appointment of Counts Palatine, to replace those who may have fallen in battle or died of old age.

Dogman, a loyal member of Logen's band, a skilled scout with sharpened teeth and an incredible sense of smell. It was first published in March 2008 by Gollancz in the UK, with an American edition following from Pyr Books. He and his crew - Dow, Tul, Grim, Dogman, Threetrees, and Forley the Weakest – were imprisoned in Carleon.
