The Age of Madness brings the industrial revolution to Joe Abercrombie’s celebrated First Law world. Thirty years have passed since the events of the original trilogy. The Union is changing; factories are rising, chimneys are choking the sky, and the old ways are being swept aside by the relentless march of progress—and the unrest that comes with it.

This trilogy explores themes of revolution, industrialization, and the cyclical nature of power. It introduces a new generation of characters, many of whom are the children of the previous era’s key players, struggling to carve out their own destinies in a world that is rapidly becoming unrecognizable.
