The third of Parker's Saevus Corax trilogy arrives hot on the heels of the previous two The mixture is much the same as before, cynical sardonic humour mixed with war viewed from the perspective of a historian or economist rather than heroic fantasy. It's a winning combination, and one I enjoyed. I just think l that it may have been a mistake to publish these books so close together as I ended up feeling a little burnt out on Saevus. Perhaps I would have enjoyed this volume more after a break, or even if they'd been published as a doorstop to read in one go.
