Excellent. Mark Lawrence is rapidly becoming one of my favourite writers. I was a bit dubious about him continuing in the same world he has built but he has pulled off this overlapping story with some panache. The changing morality bit (devil/angel on the shoulder etc) is funny and an interesting plot structure that helps drive the story forward. Highly recommended.
