Publisher's summary

Having killed an emissary from the Eastern Council in a bout of drunken violence, Torik Andorin realizes he has made his last mistake. Awaiting the cruel delights of the torturer’s imagination, he is offered a narrow escape. Though it will be one with dire consequences. He can never return to his life as he knew it before. Together with his small party, Torik enters a world of danger and conspiracy to face the strange magic and horrors of a reawakened world.

With the peace of empires lost at the stroke of a single blade, the looming fear of a now inevitable war and a mysterious ancient wisdom guiding the way for our heroes on the run, The Peace at Knife’s Edge offers high stakes adventure at an unrelenting pace.

The Peace at Knife’s Edge is the debut epic fantasy novel by James Pina.

A good start, a great world!

My review of this novel by James is long overdue, so much of the details have escaped me. Then again, what better way to review a novel then by expressing the things that you remember?

The Peace at Knife’s Edge boasts a rich world that left me full of questions and creative exploration. I enjoyed reading more about the breathing world and the wonder that surrounded every new piece of fantasy introduced throughout the story.

Don Chering did a great job encapsulating the emotions of characters and breathing life into scenes. While there were some narrative hiccups in terms of story comprehension on my end, and I thought the finale was a bit rushed, I was overall interested in the plot and what became of the main cast.

While I think the world introduced by James bears some refinement in his style and pace, I think this book is an excellent starting point for growth and success. Well done!

Solid fantasy novel

After researching the author a bit I know that this is his debut, from reading the story you won’t be able to tell! It’s very well done. A good balance between world-building and action. In the end we have met a lot of characters but we meet them gradually so the big cast isn’t overwhelming. I want to know more! So I’m already looking forward to rereading this one and then jump into the sequel.

The very skilled narrator is a pleasure to listen to.
