Fantasy For Our Time
Consolation of Grimdark: Why This Failed Quest Was More Satisfying Than Victory

Fantasy For Our Time

Today, we embark on a perilous journey into the world of Grimdark fantasy, where heroes are fools, victories are tragic, and morality is as murky as a tavern's back alley. After years of avoiding the genre, I finally took the plunge and read Joe Abercrombie's Before They Are Hanged—the second book in The First Law trilogy. And what did I discover? A failed quest that somehow became one of the most unexpectedly profound fantasy narratives I've encountered. Why do we need failed quest narratives? How do they console us in a world obsessed with relentless achievement? And what does this mean for epic fantasy, The Hero's Journey, and even my own book, The Song of the Sirin? Let's discuss.   ⏰ Timestamps: 0:00 – Welcome to the Studio: My Grimdark Adventure Continues 2:15 – Why I Avoided Grimdark for So Long 4:38 – Before They Are Hanged and the Quest That (Gloriously) Failed 8:22 – Giselle Dan Luthor: A Fool's Journey to Something Like Wisdom 12:47 – The Unexpected Consolation of Grimdark 17:02 – Lord of the Rings as a Failed Quest (And Why That's Brilliant) 20:10 – My Own Novel's Failed Quest and Why It Matters 22:01 – Final Thoughts & What's Next in the Grimdark Discussion

The Bestseller Experiment

Joe burst onto the fantasy scene in 2003 with his debut The Blade Itself. His books have climbed high up the Sunday Times and New York Times bestseller, and he had some unusual advice for writers when we spoke to him at GollanczFest. Joe is best known for the First Law Trilogy – The Blade Itself, Before They Are Hanged and Last Argument of Kings – and the stand-alone novels in the same world – Best Served Cold, The Heroes, and Red Country. He has also written the Shattered Sea trilogy for young (and old) adults – Half a King, Half the World, and Half a War. The world of the First Law collides with the industrial age in a new trilogy – The Age of Madness – which began in September 2019 with A Little Hatred, continued a year later with The Trouble With Peace and concludes in September 2021 with The Wisdom of Crowds.
