While much of crowdfunding has collapsed due to the economy in 2025, there is one star in books rising above the tends as Joe Abercrombie has crossed $2 million on his Kickstarter for The First Law with three days left to go.
I remember liking the first law trilogy despite it being so dark, it had two things going for it over Song of Ice and Fire: it had a little hole in it and it was actually completed. Haven’t read anything else by him, however.
The premium editions seems like a waste of money to me. The First Law trilogy was a great read. I enjoyed some of the stand alone novels too. His most recent release was okay until he pulled a George R.R. Martin and included an incest related sub-plot. Gross and unnecessary. I am one and done with that series.
When the economy tightens, only creators with real readership survive. This is what that looks like.
Spot on. People start to economize and buy what they actually want and need

I think…it is a waste of money.
I've been meaning to get to his books. I think I have the first book on Kindle or Kobo
