Nothing will prepare Yarvi for the truth.
"Half A King" is the first volume in Joe Abercrombie's Shattered Sea fantasy trilogy, and is, to sum it up in one sentence, a coming-of-age story that is set in a Viking-age fantasy world. I'll give the bare bones of the main story-line and try to keep this review as spoiler-free as possible, before I give my reasons for the star-rating I chose for this book.
"Half A King" tells the tale of Prince Yarvi, the youngest son of the Gettland king. Because he was born maimed - he has a twisted, knobby hand on one side - he is seen as only "half a man." Not suited to be a warrior, Yarvi is studying to become a minister. On the night before he's to take his final Minister's Test, which will make him renounce family and birthright, his uncle Odem brings world-shattering news: his father King Uthrik, and also his heir, Yarvi's elder brother, have both been treacherously murdered by the Vanstermen. And now, Yarvi is suddenly thrust into the kingship.
