Edge by Thomas Blackthorne

2.0

Like most of the Angry Robot books I've read so far, they're interesting concepts lacking writing style. The idea of this book - a somewhat dystopian future where England doesn't allow guns but requires knives with formalized dueling rules - it's interesting. The Special Ops main character is of the magical Jason Bourne type, essentially a super man. There's a cheesy love story, of course, and a touching father-son moment or two mixed in with brutal 'MMA with knives' fight scenes.

I'd imagine this book has more appeal to other readers, and I didn't think it was terrible.
