So unfolds an epic dramaa story of empire, heroes, treachery, courage, and most of all, of brutal, bloody warfare.The spectacular flair for explosive action and depth of literary and geographic knowledge, as well as the psychological complexity of the characters, makes Fire in the East the most authoritative historical adventure novel this year.
