And while it hits on all cylinders, a minor quibble is that the actual structure of the book seems haphazard. Chapter breaks almost seem random, and the breaks within the chapters are sometimes missing when changing character perspectives. This did not affect my rating. (  ) Qorvus | Jan 31, 2009 |  Interesting story about home we can grow up in opposition to our family. Quite liked how far the book spanned and the main character Bane once he had learned a little about life. (  ) Barakketh | Dec 19, 2008 | sfreader.com | Jan 21, 2007 | Bane is the bastard son of Connavar, Demonblade. His father made a deal with the goddess Morrigu so that he would live. Involved with the gladiator world, the teenaged boy sets out on a quest. He must come to terms with who he is, and with his own people (not to mention relatives), to aid them in their coming fight. http://superprose.blogspot.com/2007/0...

| Kirjan kuvailu |
|
Seventeen-year-old Bane, illegitimate son of King Connovar, comes to the city of Stone, a place of gladiatorial combat, corruption, and religious terror. Embittered by his father's refusal to acknowledge him, Bane's wildness leads to bloodshed before friendship and betrayal force him to accept the complexities of power and responsibility. The novel builds to an epic climax, as Bane must accept who he is in order to lead his people in a desperate battle for their very survival.
David Gemmell has created a detailed and realistic world in which the action is vividly described and often thrilling. Yet there is a melancholy tone, for the author is as concerned with the consequences of war and the nature of men of violence as he is with conflict itself. There is a sense of the tragedy of war, lending the sad grandeur of history to a strongly characterized and intelligent adventure. It is something the series has in common with Stephen King's haunting fantasy western epic The Dark Tower. --Gary S. Dalkin, Amazon.co.uk
