I’m about halfway through with “Last Argument of Kings” the 3rd book in the first law trilogy. Is there a second trilogy after this or is it something completely different? Didn’t want to Google for fear of spoilers.

There are 3 books involving characters from that trilogy (but that are standalones focusing on specific characters. They're usually called the "World of the First Law" books... but they aren't a trilogy per se) after that series. Then there is another trilogy called the Age of Madness that takes place after those 3 books but still is set in same world and involves basically the "next generation" of characters.

When I read them, I screwed it all up and started with Age of Madness, then read one of the World of the First Law books, then went back and read the first trilogy, then finished the other two World of the First Law books.

Like Hogfly said, there is a second trilogy - The Age of Madness - which has the world of First Law moving into a sort of industrial revolution.

But, there are three stand alone books also - Best Served Cold, The Heroes, and Red Country. I highly suggest that you read these stand alone books before moving on to the second trilogy. There are characters in the second trilogy who are introduced in the stand alone books.
