Popis

Before the thorns taught me their sharp lessons and bled weakness from me I had but one brother, and I loved him well. But those days are gone and what is left of them lies in my mother's tomb. Now I have many brothers, quick with knife and sword, and as evil as you please. We ride this broken empire and loot its corpse. They say these are violent times, the end of days when the dead roam and monsters haunt the night. All that's true enough, but there's something worse out there, in the dark. Much worse.

From being a privileged royal child, raised by a loving mother, Jorg Ancrath has become the Prince of Thorns, a charming, immoral boy leading a grim band of outlaws in a series of raids and atrocities. The world is in chaos: violence is rife, nightmares everywhere. Jorg has the ability to master the living and the dead, but there is still one thing that puts a chill in him. Returning to his father's castle Jorg must confront horrors from his childhood and carve himself a future with all hands turned against him.

Mark Lawrence's debut novel tells a tale of blood and treachery, magic and brotherhood and paints a compelling and brutal, and sometimes beautiful, picture of an exceptional boy on his journey toward manhood and the throne.

    Main thought: Et tu, Brute? <- a turning point in the story I wouldn't have expected in years to come... General review The start of the story was a bit, clunky, with what I'm used to reading but Mark didn't let me down. I've had the opportunity to read his other title "The book that wouldn't burn" and let me tell you this... I'm absolutely fangirling. (For both titles.) Make a hero face the worst, so he turns a villain, only to be a hero once more only to not do the chivalrous things everyone expects from heroes. This doesn't get enough showtime in ANY of the fantasy books I've read, let alone this closely. I've been entranced with how descriptive it is, and oh my, I loved it. The book is written in first person narrative, which might not be for everyone but is definitely worth it, after you get past the insight flashbacks that unload Jorg's history. It's a fast paced read all the while bridging around 5 years of Jorg's life (the past mainly through flashbacks).
