![]() Orso must negotiate the maze of knives that is politics, a task for which a misspent youth of debauchery has left him ill-prepared, with fewer friends and more enemies by the day. Leo dan Brock, meanwhile, finds himself imprisoned by old wounds and new responsibilities, and burns to have his sword back in his hand. Only with the boldest of gambles can she hope to change her luck. ![]() Savine dan Glokta-whose golden touch in business was once the envy of the salons of Adua-finds herself tortured by regrets, paralysed by doubts and facing social armageddon. The Trouble With Peace ups the stakes for the rogue’s gallery of misfits and miscreants we fell in love (or hate) with in A Little Hatred, as alliances shift, rivalries blossom, and the stench of coming rebellion hangs heavy on the smoke-filled air of the Union. An age of towering profits and crushing losses, of grand schemes and petty jealousies, of high conspiracy and low skullduggery. Welcome, readers, as the world of the First Law blunders like a blind bull in a china shop into an ever-more dangerous age. Note Two: This title must be ordered by itself. Note One: There is a limit of one copy per person/household. Dust jacket and interior illustrations by John Anthony di Giovanni. ![]()
