Summary

As the pit fighters face new threats and old enemies, the arena will be awash in blood, in the fifth volume of this thrilling fantasy series.

Goll quickly realizes he may have killed one opponent too many when he confronts the wrath of a dead gladiator’s stable in a slew of blood matches. Outside the Pit, Brozz fights for his life and Borchus finds refuge with an old friend.

Struggling to recover from his wounds and seeking a purpose, Halm of Zhiberia discovers that giving up a pit fighter’s life isn’t as easy as it seems . . . nor is it his decision alone. And in the west, a monstrous enemy makes itself known—and positions itself to strike at both the games and Sunja’s heart.

Perfect for fans of Gladiatorand A Game of Thrones!

If Motley Crue were Gladiators....

Great series of books and excellent narration. I love the world the the author created as well as the characters. Throughout the series the books find the balance balance between humour, violence and emotion. Just wished that a Forth book existed which was about 50 hours long for coronavirus lockdown .

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!

WAY TOO MANY SUB CHARACTERS

I have loved this series so far and have adored everything else by KCB. But I’ve been a bit lost by this. There’s just too much bloody going on!!! I listen to this whilst driving and sometimes going to sleep and have found myself zoning out with the constant barrage off different characters and their sub storylines. I feel this story is being bled for every pound (dollar) that can be squeezed out of it???

Reader beware

My original review is below, but as a simple warning, don't start reading any of this series if you want completion. The author has simply abandoned this story arc mid-write to return to older series (presumably with the $) leaving people invested in the characters, high and dry. It's just a cash cow, left rotting to one side!

I've enjoyed some of this series, however roughly every other book is just fill, consisting of unnecessary side stories and dialogue. This is not a bad book in the scheme of things, but it's both short and unnecessary in moving the story forward. Adds no value, and could easily be skipped!

Filler!

Just a filler between books I hope. Definitely not the quality storytelling of the other four books.
