War at the Edge of the World

Lots of action - but I did like the protagonist and the telling of the story. Colourful yet fast.

I have been wondering about the most popular reviews of this book. Is Castus an anti-heroe? Is he a boring protagonist with no ideas of his own? He may seem a little naive, but he is just a common soldier who happened to make centurion, he has no education. And he seems to draw proper conclusions and of course he is a real heroe. Brave and just and all. Yes, I rather like him.
