Bloodline by Conn Iggulden

5.0

A historical fiction novel with everything-epic battles, court intrigue, shifting alliances and sudden betrayals. Fast paced and action packed, easily the best of the series (so far).

“Now it’s all set, with no more change. I cannot take back one word or have him know one more thing I have done in his name.”

“All laws could be remade on strength of arms, if the need was great enough.”

“The number of deaths grew and grew as the strong fell savagely on weakened men - and then became weak, to be cut down in turn.”

“There was never a way back. There was never a chance to undo old mistakes. A man simply had to go on, or let it break him.”
