About this listen

H. Beam Piper’s The Edge of the Knife is a gripping tale of prophecy, knowledge, and the dangers of foreseeing too much. Set in the mid-20th century, the story follows an eccentric history professor, Edward Chalmers, who begins experiencing vivid visions of the future. As he struggles to make sense of his uncanny foresight, he finds himself caught between disbelief, skepticism, and the terrifying implications of what he sees. With global tensions rising, Chalmers' predictions could change history—or seal his fate.

Narrated by Charles Conover, this audiobook brings Piper’s thought-provoking exploration of fate and free will to life. A blend of classic science fiction and political intrigue, The Edge of the Knife challenges the boundaries between knowledge and power, making it a must-listen for fans of cerebral, visionary sci-fi.
