Synopsis

Darkness falls on the Great Green, and the Ancient World is fiercely divided.

On the killing fields outside the golden city of Troy, forces loyal to the Mykene King mass. Among them is Odysseus, fabled storyteller and reluctant ally to the Mykene, who knows that he must soon face his former friends in deadly combat.

Within the city, the Trojan king waits. Ailing and bitter, his hope is pinned on two heroes: his favourite son Hektor, and the dread Helikaon who will wreak terrible vengeance for the death of his wife at Mykene hands.

War has been declared.

As enemies, who are also kinsmen, are filled with bloodlust, they know that many of them will die, and that some will become heroes: heroes who will live for ever in a story that will echo down the centuries.

I can't....I won't....I don't.....Just....Just can't. Not right now. After a long while, years actually, and almost a huge number of books later, I have finished a series that has me at a total loss for words. It has been such a ride. So many ups and downs. So many deaths. So much love. Such love. Su......more

How Fall of Kings should have ended (Note: All endings are written by me in an homage to How it Should Have Ended. They aren't spoilers, none of this stuff happened although I would've enjoyed any of these endings more than the actual ending.) Possible ending #1 "Lord Helikaon," said Khalkeus. "What is......more

Goodreads review by Emelia on September 03, 2017

One of Gemmell's finest series. I have now read all his books and recommend this series especially. It is wonderfully written and will keep you on the edge of your seat. Historically correct and the characters are ones that have often been over looked. Gemmell will go down as one of the finest writer......more

Goodreads review by Rysik on January 19, 2025

Pan Gemmell skończył swoją przedwcześnie zakończoną karierę pisarską, mając tarcze wysoko uniesioną w górze. Ciężko mi ocenić tą książkę niżej, ponieważ zdaję sobie sprawę z tego, że pan Gemmell nawet nie miał możliwości jej skończyć, ba, nawet nie wiem jak w dużym stopniu był powiązany z tym tomem,......more
