Editor's Review

AudioBook Atlas Editorial Team

I've been a fan of Joe Abercrombie's First Law series for years, and 'The Trouble with Peace' is a welcome return to this grimdark world. Pacey's narration is exceptional, capturing the nuances of each character with ease. His pacing is spot-on, building tension and releasing it with expert timing. The story is filled with twists and turns, and Abercrombie's unflinching exploration of power dynamics and human nature is as thought-provoking as ever. However, some listeners might find the sheer number of characters and plotlines overwhelming at times. Despite this, 'The Trouble with Peace' is a compelling listen that leaves you eager for more.
