À propos de cet audio
Sharp Ends is the ultimate collection of award-winning tales and exclusive new short stories from the master of grimdark fantasy, Joe Abercrombie.
Violence explodes, treachery abounds, and the words are as deadly as the weapons in this rogue's gallery of sideshows, backstories, and sharp endings from the world of the First Law.
The Union army may be full of bastards, but there's only one who thinks he can save the day single-handed when the Gurkish come calling: the incomparable Colonel Sand dan Glokta.
Curnden Craw and his dozen are out to recover a mysterious item from beyond the Crinna. Only one small problem: No one seems to know what the item is.
Shevedieh, the self-styled best thief in Styria, lurches from disaster to catastrophe alongside her best friend and greatest enemy, Javre, Lioness of Hoskopp.
And after years of bloodshed, idealistic chieftain Bethod is desperate to bring peace to the North. There's only one obstacle left - his own lunatic champion, the most feared man in the North: the Bloody-Nine….

But the slums boil over with a rage that all the money in the world cannot control.

Brother Diaz has been summoned to the Sacred City, where he is certain a commendation and grand holy assignment awaits him. But his new flock is made up of unrepentant murderers, practitioners of ghastly magic, and outright monsters. The mission he is tasked with will require bloody measures from them all in order to achieve its righteous ends. Elves lurk at our borders and hunger for our flesh, while greedy princes care for nothing but their own ambitions and comfort. With a hellish journey before him, it's a good thing Brother Diaz has the devils on his side.

Born into the troubled kingdom of Albermaine, Alwyn Scribe is raised as an outlaw. Quick of wit and deft with a blade, Alwyn is content with the freedom of the woods and the comradeship of his fellow thieves. But an act of betrayal sets him on a new path - one of blood and vengeance, which eventually leads him to a soldier's life in the king's army. Fighting under the command of Lady Evadine Courlain, a noblewoman beset by visions of a demonic apocalypse, Alwyn must survive war and the deadly intrigues of the nobility if he hopes to claim his vengeance.

Life as a knight is not what Vedren Chel imagined. Bound by oath to a dead-end job in the service of a lazy step-uncle, Chel no longer dreams of glory - he dreams of going home. When invaders throw the kingdom into turmoil, Chel finds opportunity in the chaos: if he escorts a stranded prince to safety, Chel will be released from his oath. All he has to do is drag the brat from one side of the country to the other, through war and wilderness, chased all the way by ruthless assassins.

After the old gods warred and drove themselves to extinction, the cataclysm of their fall shattered the land of Vigrio. Now, power-hungry jarls carve out petty kingdoms, and monsters stalk the shadow-haunted woods and mountains. A world where the bones of the dead gods still hold great power, promising fame, and fortune for those brave - or desperate - enough to seek them out. As whispers of war echo over the plains and across the fjords, fate follows the footsteps of three people. All three will shape the fate of the world, as it once more teeters on the edge of chaos.

The war is over, and army priest Tomas Piety heads home with Sergeant Bloody Anne at his side. But things have changed while he was away: His crime empire has been stolen, and the people of Ellinburg - his people - have run out of food, hope, and places to hide. Tomas sets out to reclaim what was his with help from Anne, his brother, Jochan, and his new gang: the Pious Men. But when he finds himself dragged into a web of political intrigue once again, everything gets more complicated.

Narrator is unbelievably talented!
My first audiobook experience was Stephen Fry, who is very impressive. Then I listened to several more audiobooks and realized all narrators are not created equal, and Fry became my benchmark for great voice acting…
Dear Mr. Fry, with much love and respect, please step to the side. Stephen Pacey is amazing.
Oh. And Abercrombie’s work is fun, gritty, dark and wonderfully immersive.
There is only one book remaining of the 9/10 in this world for me to enjoy and I’m already planning on re-listening to the whole series!

A View from the Other Side
My fiancé and I have listened to all the First Law books and we are completely hooked!! We both loved the depth this anthology added to the other stories and we had fun tracing the timelines of the series. Pacey is absolutely perfect for Ambercrombie's action-packed style and humor. We really tried to drag this one out as we no longer have any books left to listen to... very much hoping the final book in the "Little Hatred" trilogy comes out soon!

To be frank, I can be frank yes? I assume, as I am writing this with no editorial review I can bloody well be anyone I like. So, yes, I will be frank.
This, like everything from this duo of author and narrator has been bloody perfection.

One of my favourite authors read by my favourite narrator
Originally read these books in print and really enjoyed them, enough to revisit the series. Decided to give the audiobooks a try for driving & tedious tasks. Stephen Pacey gave me a voice and personality to compliment every character.

Best collection of short stories!!
You definitely need to have first read/listened to the other first law books to get the full impact of these stories. They enhance the other stories in the series and add a quirk here and there. Such a great collection.

I thought it was good but found myself wanting more substance for the final book of tales. Call me selfish but I know you have to be realistic!
