About this listen
Shy South comes home to her farm to find a blackened shell; her brother and sister have been stolen and she's going to have to return to her bad old ways if she's ever going to see them again. She sets off in grim 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, and high into unmapped mountains to a reckoning with ancient enemies, and force them into alliance with Nicomo Cosca, infamous soldier of fortune...and a man no one should ever have to trust…
Steven Pacey is best known for his role as Del Tarrant in the third and fourth seasons of the sci-fi series Blake's 7.
He has worked extensively in Theatre, TV and film for many years and in 2009 played opposite Graham Norton in La Cage Aux Folles at London's Playhouse Theatre. He has read numerous audiobooks including Joe Abercrombie's First Law Trilogy, Best Served Cold and The Heroes, and abridged titles by Matthew Reilly.

Past its peak
The series peaked and plateaued at best served cold/ the heroes for me. This one’s good too and worth the listen. Enjoyable at times and some nice tie ins. But I wish he never killed off Day, I always looked forward to hearing what she had to snack on

Ah sweet revenge
He's back . . . you'll see. Just love the character development in Abercrombie's novels. Raw, grim dark brilliance. if you like the western film Unforgiven with Clint Eastwood, you'll like this. Kidnapping, revenge, and rebellion drive this with one hell of a great female character and someone called Logan . . .

fantastic
Loved the story and lovable characters as always. The narrator did a perfect job too! Had a few good surprises along the way that i really didn't expect and brutal encounters. Compared to the others in the series, this book really did feel like a western, with no magic (sadly), some medieval warfare, and one can find a lot of life lessons. So it was a bit if a fantasy/western fable. Abercrombie at his best!

Loved it.
The longer the journey you took to get to this book, the better it is. This one was definitely for those long time fans of the first law world.

marvellous writing and narrating
So much grim enjoyment. satisfyingly gripping and coherent. The narrator is so perfectly suited to the content it is hars to imagine the character voice as anything else.

The best fantasy western ever.
I loved this book. Best blending of fantasy and a western ever. Fast paced, plenty of action, twists and turns, revenge and laugh out loud moments. These characters are awesome bastards, all of them.
If you love a great story really well told and narrated to perfection, have a listen to this book. Steven Pacey's 'Nicomo Cosca' is the bloody best!

Western didn’t quite work
Loved the characters as usual but framing it as a western made seem inconsistent. Framing it around expansion into the Russian steps would been more consistent with the rest of the First Law world.
