Summary:

With both the scabbard and the hilt of the Blood Sword, you have but one part left - the blade!

The book takes you into the mystical Arabesque city of Crescentium. The city seems to be modelled after what a Crusader port would have been like, with a crusade to spread the "True Faith" (an obvious reference to Christianity) having conquered Crescentium and surrounding lands.

The references to mythology are done quite well in this book, with the added element of an Arabesque environment to play with, the writers make this book especially interesting for one who has some knowledge of mythology.

Rating : 5/5

 

Blurb:

Will you suvive the perils of the desert city of Crescentium? The wandering ghouls and assassins? The half-human monsters? The deaded seven-in-one? For this is a land of sorcery and treachery - where you will encounter terrors and wonders more fabulous that you had ever dared imagine - the great Roc, the three wishes, the ship of the Pirate-King, the flying horse, the magic of the beautiful Psyche. And who shall win the sword of Death - the Demons Claw itself?
