The Before They Are Hanged was published in 2007. It is the second book in The First Law Trilogy. It has sold over two million copies and has been translated into thirty-seven languages. It has been generally well-received by critics.

The First Law is a fantasy series written by Joe Abercrombie. It consists of three books: The Blade Itself, Before They Are Hanged, and Last Argument of Kings. The series follows the journey of Logen Ninefingers, a barbarian warrior, as he tries to find his place in the world. Along the way, he meets a cast of colorful characters, including the wizards Bayaz and Ferro Malarky, the thief Jezal dan Luthar, and the barbarian ruler Bethod. The First Law is a gritty, dark series that explores the nature of violence and power.

The book is about a group of criminals who are about to be hanged. They are given a choice to either go to a place called the “Hanging Place” or to a place called the “Freezing Place”. They all choose the Hanging Place.

If you are looking for a new book to read, I recommend checking out Before They Are Hanged by Joe Abercrombie. It is the second book in the First Law Trilogy and it is just as good as the first book. The story follows Logen Ninefingers and his companions as they continue their journey to stop the army of the Northmen. The characters are well developed and the story is very engaging. I think you will enjoy it.
