| Omschrijving | Essef - The story is set in precataclysmic North America, approximately 600 years after nuclear war, man-induced plagues, and worldwide seismic disturbances have thrown humanity into a brutal pre-industrial age. Much of California and the East Coast have sunk into the sea. What remains of the eastern states, from Canada to Georgia, has been settled by waves of dark-skinned and dark-haired adventurers from Europe (Spaniards, Greeks, Armenians, etc.) called the Ehleenee. While these early invaders were rugged fighters in the mold of Athenians and Spartans, the current crop are little more than decadent dictators ruling over downtrodden peasant farmers.
In the first six Horseclans volumes, the narrative moves forward in time. However, this seventh book of the series (and the next few which follow) all take place before the great migration. The call has gone out and the clans are gathering to hear Milo's words of prophecy which promise and end to their wandering. Yet before they can abandon their hunting grounds, they have one last debt to settle. They must rescue a young girl and her two brothers, who were kidnapped and sold into slavery, and teach their enemies the price of harming people of the clans. But the path to vengeance leads them straight into a sword-swinging battle with two powerful armies. |
