Hmm, Abercrombie's books sound very interesting, right up my alley. I'm going to have to look them up as soon as I can, I'm already intrigued.
I hope you'll love them as much as I do. Another fun thing you can do while reading it is to spot the references as some seemingly innocuous detail from page whatever tends to become something major later on. Of the five so far only Best Served Cold is a stand-alone, but its ties with the First Law series means that you'd enjoy it a bit more if you read that first, while The Heroes is the first part of an upcoming trilogy.
