Summary

The thirst for vengeance drives the Sunja gladiators to extreme measures in the fourth installment of this epic fantasy series.

The fighting season continues, and Goll prepares to participate once again in the games, as one man plots revenge upon the returning Kree. Growing weary of the insolent Prajus, golden-faced Gastillo seeks to strike a bargain with the wine merchant Nexus, which would rid him of his troublesome gladiator and provide him with the wealth needed to leave the Pit forever.

Seeking death, Pig Knot wanders the alleys and backstreets of Sunja and discovers that the city of his birth does not favor him in the least. Meanwhile, the captured Jackals embrace the Pit and discover the arena sands do favor them. And the Perician Weapon—now known as Wonder—faces perhaps his most telling match yet . . .

Perfect for fans of Gladiator and A Game of Thrones!

Continued Appreciation

This book 4 is a great follow onto the previous books and cannot wait for more to listen to. All the characters are well liked, rough but just real. Full of action, a must read of this series.

Simply Excellent!

What a great series of books! I discovered these books after listening to the author's Mountain Man series - those book are great, but this gladiator series is just so much better! You can't help being drawn into the individual characters' story archs and their plans. The gory arena fight scenes and the build-ups to the fights are done so well. John Lee also does an admirable job with the narration - such good accents. Listened to all 5 books in less than two weeks. I really hope the author continues with this series!

Another solid entry in the series

The only disappointing thing about this book is that the next one isn't released yet.
Its very easy to binge-listen to this series.
