Truly excellent.
The plot is a never ending string of turning points and reveals. Even the plot points you think are obvious all have their own twists.
The characters are all well-rounded and believable and endearing. I rooted for every single one of them.
For a story with so much uncensored violence, the message is surprisingly hopeful, touching and human.
Gemmell shows how good of a storyteller he is with this book and it convinced me to read more of his work.
