![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() As someone who has done both a bachelor’s and master’s degree in writing, it was surprising to see a character with no impact on the plot of the book, yet it still worked. That is to say, he wants to not know anything, and will just follow his companions along, making sure they don’t die. What I find interesting about Logen is that he doesn’t want anything. He finds himself, as an inquisitor, embroiled in political schemes that were very entertaining to read and genuinely surprising at times.įinally, the last main point of view character is Logen. I think this character might have been the most difficult to write. Glokta, once a great swordsman, now a crippled torturer, is bitter and in constant agony. Seeing the world through his eyes was interesting, especially when he seemed to have conflicting opinions on people and things, his arrogance and self-righteousness coming into conflict with friendships (kind of) and the world around him. That’s the point! Just because I don’t like him doesn’t mean I don’t enjoy his scenes. Jezal is an arrogant, selfish nobleman who I hated from the start and still don’t like him. Their points of view feel completely different, to the extent that you know who you’re following even without being told. Jezal, Glokta and Logen are all incredible characters. Actually, I think there’s a second, but I’ll get to that. ![]()
