It was a great night. Much fun was had, much drink was consumed and some good conversations were had. All good stuff. Roll on next year!
Sad not to see Kearney on there, as his book was the most 'Gemmell-like' by about a light-year.
For me it's Abercrombie all the way. Last Argument of Kings is the best conclusion to a fantasy trilogy, erm, ever (if you don't count Lord of the Rings…

Will be in touch soon & thanks again!
Debbie
