You hope for both the ones that treat people right and treat people wrong to get what they deserve, but almost no characters in an Abercrombie novel leave without some blood on their hands. There are characters you root for and ones you root for the worst to happen to.
The Age of Madness is not a series of good triumphing over evil but of power and what humanity does with that power. To take a world as grim as The First Law trilogy and bring it into the industrial age was a bold move but one that The Wisdom of Crowds ultimately proves to be the right choice for not only the world-building but the overall story. As a longtime Joe Abercrombie reader, I had high expectations for the follow-up to his original trilogy and the series that would come after the last novel, the stand-alone Red Country.
