Half the World

By: Joe Abercrombie

Narrated by: John Keating

Sometimes a girl is touched by Mother War.
Thorn is such a girl. Desperate to avenge her dead father, she lives to fight. But she has been named a murderer by the very man who trained her to kill.

Sometimes a woman becomes a warrior.
She finds herself caught up in the schemes of Father Yarvi, Gettland’s deeply cunning minister. Crossing half the world to find allies against the ruthless High King, she learns harsh lessons of blood and deceit.

Sometimes a warrior becomes a weapon.
Beside her on the journey is Brand, a young warrior who hates to kill, a failure in his eyes and hers, but with one chance at redemption.

And weapons are made for one purpose.
Will Thorn forever be a pawn in the hands of the powerful, or can she carve her own path?

Please get Steven Pacey back

It's hard introducing a new narrator to an author /narrator duo where their previous history has made a memorable footprint. The new guy is just a place setter while we hope Steven Pacey returns. Not fair to the new narrator or die hard Abercrombie readers.

I remember how I savored beginning a novel with that author/narrator combo. They were each better together than apart.

Please get Steven back.

Great book

Great to listen to and great to read. Can't wait for the final book. Terrific narrator. Try his other book narrations as well.

Everything this guy writes

If it’s Joe Abercrombie I’m here for it. Great new characters are brought into the narrative, plenty of action and even romance. Fast becoming one of my favorite authors. Better than the first book imo.

great epic fantasy fiction book

sometimes you may get lost keeping up with all the characters but if you like George Martin then you can follow this no problem. I wouldn't put him in the same league as Martin but definitely worth a listen.

Very enjoyable

Continues the saga in honest form and solid storytelling. Listen today!! You won’t regret it.
