Um.. num num.. why did it have to end like this, why?! why why why why! I knooooww we could not have gotten a happy ending I know it wouldn't have fit with the brutality of the book but ugh! This ending was not finite! I felt like the book was not justified! I feel incomplete and somehow cheated! hmph! 
 This is all Bayaz's fault, I hate his guts, I kept hoping he'll drop dead at some point. This book was SO nti-heroic fantasy, Abercrombie took all the cliche heroic fantasy characters and mocked them. The Wise Old Man in your typical fantasy was turned into a power mad immortal? ruthless selfish psycopath Bayaz. The heroic fantasy dashing heroes were turned into an arrogant cowardly little shit, Jezal, and a brutal barbaric man with a murderous alter ego, Logen. The fair heroine was shown to us as the drunken, bitter Ardee and well, Ferro... if you could classify her as a female. and Finally, our supporting character, who in a typical fantasy would provide much needed magical help at the right moment, was given to us in the form of mutilated torturer Glokta. Great, add to that 10 more misreable creatures that hate each other and we have the perfect mixture for anti-heroic fantasy. 
 It's too much misery for me, I'm misreable as it is, why should I depress myself further? This may be a shallow decision, but I'm gonna stick to High Fantasy from now on, with ridiculous acts of heroism and with clear concepts of good and evil! Disney has ruined me forever, I want to see princesses rescued and villains put in prison!
