A Little Hatred (The Age of Madness Book 1)

A Little Hatred, the first novel in Joe Abercrombie’s The Age of Madness Trilogy, marks the dawn of industry—yet the shadows of magic and vengeance still linger.

As factories rise and revolution brews, Leo dan Brock seeks glory on the bloody borders of Angland, Prince Orso stumbles under the weight of expectation, and Savine dan Glokta schemes her way up a ruthless society ready to explode. Meanwhile, Rikke, cursed with the prophetic Long Eye, must learn to control her gift as the First of the Magi continues to manipulate the world’s fate.

Blending politics, power, and prophecy, this gripping tale proves that while machines may rule the future, magic—and human ambition—refuse to die.
