Lord Grimdark (self-appointed). Writer of the First Law and Shattered Sea books and the Devils. Part-time Witch King of Nihilism, deep in a jaded literary sewer etc. etc.
⚔️ NEW EPISODE! ⚔️ Thanks to the fabulous folks at Tor Nightfire, we're absolutely delighted to chat with the fabulous @joeabercrombie.com, fresh off his US tour for the paperback release of his book THE DEVILS (and fresh off his starring role in PRIMATE)! Available now wherever you get your pods!
Join Robin & David in conversation Lord Grimdark himself; it’s only bloody Joe Abercrombie! Tables are flipped, blood flows (probably) while we discuss Joe’s latest novel THE DEVILS, movie rights, screenwriting, human error, the comedy of violence & Joe’s author journey. (And don’t drink the C*ke.)

The altar-like setup at our local Barnes and Noble featuring @joeabercrombie.com's The Devils is truly on point. #booksky
They're called deckled edges. It's a deliberate effect, intended to simulate the torn rather than cut page edges you get on old books.
André E. R. Soares@andre2099.bsky.social · 3mo ago@joeabercrombie.com not sure it’s the same in the US but they did you dirty with the hardcover edition of the Devils in Europe. Terrible quality, stuck/badly cut pages, etc. Amazon has many complaints too. :/

For many years I have been aware of a deep injustice - citizens of the USA have had almost no hardcover editions of the First Law Trilogy to call their own. With your help, we can put this right.
