Description
The opening book in DM Cain's epic Light and Shadow fantasy series certainly plunges us in at the deep end. The heart of this book - its true essence - is prejudice and love, persistence and stubbornness. Stewart Bint - author of 'In Shadows Waiting' and 'Timeshaft'. In the deepest bowels of hell, five demons have been summoned, their bonds to the fires of damnation severed. For the first time in millennia, they have been called to the human realm to put an end to a battle that has raged for centuries. The Children of Light and the Brotherhood of Shadow dominate the war-torn land, each yearning to rule the planet. Now the Brotherhood has summoned the demons, a weapon that could destroy their enemies once and for all, if they can only keep them under control. Chaos, a soldier in The Children of Light, basks in the glory of being the highest ranking fighter of his generation, but his arrogance and impulsiveness prevent him from being given the opportunity to prove himself. He believes himself beyond the law, but a fateful coincidence puts him at the mercy of the demon, Anathema. The two warriors, demon and human, strike up an intense rivalry, but their obsession to destroy one another only leads them closer together. They must decide which is more important to them - their duty or their desire. An intriguing glimpse into the nature of friend and foe, and into the fragility of absolutes. - Reader D M Cain introduces us to a deep and immersing new world and to a struggle that has been raging for hundreds of years. - Reader Cain manages to subvert our expectations, forcing upon us surprising pathos for the sociopathic, and unreasoning anger against decisions that can only objectively be described as just. - Reader
