Book description
The trouble with peace is a book that throws you straight into a storm of conspiracy, betrayal, and rebellion. I'm a fan of Joe Abercrombie's sharp edge, and this audiobook delivers that razor-sharpness in every line. From the first word I was pulled into a world where peace is nothing more than another battlefield, and every character is a potential weapon.
Savine dan Glokta, once Adua's most powerful investor, is the central figure. His judgment, fortune, and reputation lie in tatters, yet his ambitions remain unshaken. He shows no scruples-no one stands in his way. I could feel the tension build as he moves through the pages, looking for a way to rebuild what he's lost. The narration captures his relentless drive with perfect timing, making his desperation palpable.
Then there's the rest of the cast. Heroes like Leo dan Brock and Stour Nightfall prefer swords drawn to any peace talk, making the notion of an orderly world seem like a joke. Their warlike attitudes contrast sharply with Rikke, who must master the Long Eye's power before it turns on her. Her story arc gives the audiobook a subtle emotional undercurrent, a reminder that not all battles are fought with blades.
The plot thickens with the Breakers lurking in the shadows, planning to free the common man from shackles, while noblemen bicker for personal advantage. Orso navigates the treacherous maze of politics, only to find his enemies and debts multiplying. The stakes are clear: the old ways are swept aside, the old leaders vanish, and those who would seize power find no alliance, no friendship, and no lasting peace.
Every scene feels immediate, and the narrator's pacing keeps the story moving at a steady pace. The book's world is built around the idea that power is a game with no winners-only survivors. The stakes are high, the characters flawed, and the narrative relentless. For fans of grimdark fantasy who appreciate tight, engaging storytelling, this audiobook is a solid entry in the Age of Madness series.
In short, The Trouble with Peace takes the reader to a place where peace is a myth, alliances are fleeting, and every character is forced to decide whether they want to fight or survive. It's a gripping, well-crafted story that stays with you long after the final chapter.
