Teaser trailer for Joe Abercrombie's A RED COUNTRY



Shy South comes home to her farm to find a blackened shell, her brother and sister stolen, and knows she'll have to go back to bad old ways if she's ever to see them again. She sets off in pursuit with only her cowardly old step-father Lamb for company. But it turns out he's hiding a bloody past of his own. None bloodier. Their journey will take them across the lawless plains, to a frontier town gripped by gold fever, through feuds, duels, and massacres, high into unmapped mountains to a reckoning with ancient enemies, and force them into alliance with Nicomo Cosca, infamous soldier of fortune, a man no one should ever have to trust...

The First Law trilogy was Joe's take on the great epic fantasy tales. Then, in BEST SERVED COLD he took on a fantasy version of a classic revenge story, and we have a superb tale of war waged in the frozen north still to come. With this, his next novel, Joe Abercrombie is once again venturing in a new direction, and on a new adventure, with one of the most enduring, powerful and popular characters of the First Law Trilogy. It's going to be their biggest challenge yet ...

Unfortunately not available in the US until November 20.

It was pretty obvious that the Bloody Nine would be returning from the jacket cover description previously released, but when that nine-fingered bloody handprints flashed up on the screen, I let out a shout of joy. I cannot freaking wait for this book.

I was pretty torn between The Prisoner of Heaven and The Providence Rider for my most anticipated novel of the year. It's now a three-way tie with A Red Country. Only 215 days to go!
