Interesting book, thankfully not the bodice-ripper the cover would imply. Well written, with meticulous attention to historic detail, quite possibly the first enjoyable book I've read that notes what tribe went where and did what around what year. After reading Heroes Die, I kept an eye out for his other books and this one didn't disappoint.
Pre09:
It's been a long time for me on this one. The memory is hazy. Still, I love most of the author's work.
Characters: Quite predictable. But at least the lead is lovable.
Plot: A couple twists here and there. Good fight scenes as expected.
Style: High fantasy adventure all the way.
