The Broken Empire trilogy is fantastic for a fantasy series. It is fantastic for a post-apocalyptic series. It is fantastic as a book, period. I can't sing its praises enough. The first one, Prince of Thorns was amazing, with a break neck pace, dry, dark humor, and a nuke. A fucking nuke.

Mark Lawrence has a winner on his hands, here, and I'm excited to see what he'll come up with next.
