La Herman non solo scrive una storia fantastica ed emozionante ma è in gradi di farti vedere i luoghi e sentire anche i profumi e gli odori. Se di questa saga facessero uno sceneggiato sarebbe a livello del trono di spade. Consigliatissimo ( da leggere in ordine, questo è il terzo della saga). ingen anmeldelser | tilføj en anmeldelse

After winning his first battle, Prince Alexander fights to become the ruler his kingdom demands--but the line between leader and tyrant blurs with each new threat. Meanwhile, Hephaestion, cast aside by Alexander for killing the wrong man, must conceal the devastating secret of a divine prophecy from Katerina even as the two of them are thrust together on a dangerous mission to Egypt. The warrior, Jacob, determined to forget his first love, vows to eradicate the ancient Blood Magics and believes that royal prisoner Cynane holds the key to Macedon's undoing. And in chains, the Persian princess Zofia still longs to find the Spirit Eaters, but first must grapple with the secrets of her handsome--and deadly--captor. No library descriptions found. |

This book also felt like it was being held in check--unnaturally so--by the author. Some chapters clearly wanted to move into more adult territory, and were being held back by the YA classification. The multiple romance subplots were also a bit much, and although they didn't quite feel repetitive... it got close.
All told, I think there's just too much happening at once here. The series would have been better off focusing on fewer characters and allowing others to be more minor, or else offering them their own books rather than trying to push everything together to the point where nothing is quite given enough depth or attention. Unless a reader was specifically looking for historical fantasy related to Alexander the Great, at this point, I don't think I'd be able to recommend this series. ( )
