This is so good! I am still blown away. It's not as dark than I expected it to be, but it's still very shades of grey. Every character has huge flaws. There are still not enough women. Only thing that bothered me is dudes being mad/jealous about other dudes have consensual sex with women.
But the rest, including putting tropes on their head (here's looking at you, Bayaz' fellowship of the whatever), was awesome. Glokta is soooo my favorite.
