Blimey! There’s no hanging about here! Some books start off in gentle mode and build up to the gore and blood later. Some keep it till almost the end. None of that half baked stuff here.
We start with the horror of an enforced march with everyone being beaten senseless. Charming! But it gets a lot worse. Although they have their mouths stuffed with old rags to keep them quiet and shouting encouragement to others they do get to their destination.
And their reward?
Being burned alive at the stake.
Bet they were thinking “ who coined the phrase —Is your journey really necessary “
What a start to a book!
You must read on
