Excellent book, and cruel with the characters!

Excellent trilogy! I'm a little tired of the fantasy stories which always speak of a kingdom to the Lord of the Rings with Elves and Dwarves. Here, nothing of all this, we follow the little Ashdod, an orphan thief who wants to become a murderer to get by, with a master assassin who obviously does not want to apprentice.
Clichés stop there! The author is cruel to his characters, he makes us attach and kills us without thank you, disfigures them, mutilates regardless of the drive that screams with rage each character degummed this way - in this respect, there Games of the Throne in this story, it is sometimes angry against the book and we refuse to open a little to protest against this author who abuses us and bullies his characters.
This trilogy is really excellent to the end, you can immerse ... with a dose of courage!
