I will not lie, I just looked up hard looking actresses and Christiane Paul came up. She seems like she is always so close to flipping on the Union, but then she does her job. She infiltrates dissidents and then brings them down. She has the same job that Glokta had when we first met him, meaning she responds directly to the Arch Lector. She has a hard look after her years spent living in the work-camps. She ends up being the reason why Prince Orso succeeds in Valbeck. I should know better than to expect happiness from Joe Abercrombie. There was part of me that wanted the two of them to escape and join up with the Dogman. My favorite is when he kills Stour’s warrior with an arrowhead during a battle and basically says something like “I told you I would kill you.” The toughest part though was when he realizes what he has to do to prove his loyalty to Stour Nightfall and he stabs Wonderful. There are a bunch of great moments in the book. Clover is someone who is concerned about himself.

We learn more about his past though and he ends up not being anyone from the other books, but he would have been present. Especially when Wondeful shows up and talks about his past. I thought for sure that he was going to be someone in hiding. When we first meet Clover, he is teaching some kids how to sword fight. He has that look of a young guy who just holds the entire world in utter contempt. But then other characters mentioned his blue eyes and I thought of that kid who played Percy Jackson: Logan Lerman. This is a weird one because I kept picturing Mads Mikkelsen (probably because they kept mentioning Stour having wet eyes).
