Fantasy Book Club discussion

For those that might be on the fence about whether to read our October selection, The Blade Itself, here is a sample from Joe Abercrombie's web site:

Scroll down the page for a longer excerpt in PDF format.

How cool. I will start reading this pdf file after I finish the "Naked Empire" by Terry Goodkind. If the first 63 pages of "The Blade Itself" is great, then I will buy this book and discuss about it before this month is over. I can't wait for November to start reading, "The Hobbit."

I really like it when authors offer a "sizable" excerpt - I used to do just 1 chapter but I've taken to posting larger works too especially for something like The Crown Conspiracy where Chapter 1 doesn't even have the main characters in it.
