The Trouble with Peace

The Gripping Sunday Times Bestselling Fantasy

De: Joe Abercrombie

Narrado por: Steven Pacey

Second in the age of Madness trilogy, The Trouble with Peace is the next instalment of a series which is revolutionising fantasy....

Conspiracy. Betrayal. Rebellion.

Peace is just another kind of battlefield....

Savine dan Glokta, once Adua's most powerful investor, finds her judgement, fortune and reputation in tatters. But she still has all her ambitions, and no scruple will be permitted to stand in her way.

For heroes like Leo dan Brock and Stour Nightfall, only happy with swords drawn, peace is an ordeal to end as soon as possible. But grievances must be nursed, power seized and allies gathered first, while Rikke must master the power of the Long Eye...before it kills her.

Unrest worms into every layer of society. The Breakers still lurk in the shadows, plotting to free the common man from his shackles, while noblemen bicker for their own advantage. Orso struggles to find a safe path through the maze of knives that is politics, only for his enemies, and his debts, to multiply.

The old ways are swept aside, and the old leaders with them, but those who would seize the reins of power will find no alliance, no friendship, and no peace, lasts forever.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"Joe Abercrombie is doing some terrific work." (George R. R. Martin)

Just brilliant.

This series just gets better! The writing is terrific, the banter between the main characters is a joy to listen to, the narration is top-notch, and the story is faultless.

What an ending!

Loved the twist!! He did it again, those last few chapters!! Hooked!!! Downloading the conclusion now.

Wonderful tale, masterly narrated!

More of the same rich storytelling from Joe Abercrombie! The wonderful characters are brought to life once again by the amazing Steven Pacey.

Can’t wait for the next book!

This, this is on another level in every way

Abercombie has never been better even though he is usually bloody legend. The new trilogy is a masterpiece thus far. Should also add that the audio guy, that Pacey, he is the best performer i have listened to out of my 125 audio flicks

Cant wait for the next one

Joe abercrombie returns victoriously To the land of the first law. I enjoyed this book immensly, but rather oddly the book is not as melancholy as the books of the first law scene have been so far. Anyways really good performance and writing In this one.

His best yet

It gives optimism that the sixth (seventh) one feels like the most successful overall, in terms of structure, buildup, drawing upon the previous threads. Books before have certainly had fun and thrills but there feels like a consistency of pace that hadn’t quite been as thoroughly maintained throughout the book as done here.
Or it’s recency bias, but I’m certainly satisfied.

Amazing book, a masterpiece of Grim-dark.

Totally recommend to fans of Grim-dark and of Joe Abercrombie's work. Stephen Pacey's narration Is stellar, as always. Kinda sad I have to wait for Wisdom of Crowds.

Amazing

Extraordinary is in understatement. It as awesome as all the books of Joe Abercrombie. I am in love

Next level for salmon

This series are among my favorites, performance is unmatched. Story is crazy good carries away

MUCH better than the first one..

This is a proper return to form for Joe. It is rare for an author at this career stage.
Well done!!
Steven Pacey is fantastic as usual. He might be even better than usual in this one.
For fans of Joe's First Law series, you will not be disappointed; you might even be pleasantly surprised.
YOU WILL NOT regret a credit for this... I would have paid full price for this one.
