A MARCH OF KINGS takes us one step further on Thor’s epic journey into manhood, as he begins to realize more about who he is, what his powers are, as he embarks to become a warrior. After he escapes from the dungeon, Thor is horrified to learn of another assassination attempt on King MacGil. When MacGil dies, the kingdom is set into turmoil. As everyone vies for the throne, King’s Court is more rife than ever with its family dramas, power struggles, ambitions, jealousy, violence, and betrayal. An heir must be chosen from among the children, and the ancient Destiny Sword, the source of all their power, will have a chance to be wielded by someone new. But all this might be upended: the murder weapon is recovered, and the noose tightens on finding the assassin. Simultaneously, the MacGils face a new threat by the McClouds, who are set to attack again from within the Ring. Thor fights to win back Gwendolyn’s love, but there may not be time: he is told to pack up, to prepare with his brothers in arms for The Hundred, a hundred grueling days of hell that all Legion members must survive. The Legion will have to cross the Canyon, beyond the protection of the Ring, into the Wilds, and set sail across the Tartuvian Sea for the Isle of Mist, said to be patrolled by a dragon, for their initiation into manhood. Will they make it back? Will the Ring survive in their absence? And will Thor finally learn the secret of his destiny? With its sophisticated world-building and characterization, A MARCH OF KINGS is an epic tale of friends and lovers, of rivals and suitors, of knights and dragons, of intrigue and political machinations, of coming of age, of broken hearts, of deception, ambition, and betrayal. It is a tale of honor and courage, of fate and destiny, of sorcery. It is a fantasy that brings us into a world we will never forget, and which will appeal to all ages and genders.

Anton Tsehhovi 1888. aastal ilmunud novell.

Kaesolevas raamatus tuuakse paevavalgele Mossadi koige keerukamad operatsioonid ja koige vapramad kangelased. Raagitakse ka nende eksimustest ja labikukkumistest, mis on mitmel korral agentuuri mainet kahjustanud ja selle alustalasid koigutanud. Salateenistuse tegevus on mitmel moel Iisraeli saatust ja maailma muutnud. Koigele vaatamata kannustab Mossadi salaagente sugav ja idealistlik kodumaa-armastus, taielik puhendumine oma riigi sailimise eest voitlemisele ning valmisolek vastu astuda koige hirmsamatele ohtudele, nad on Iisraeli nimel koigeks valmis.

«…Юзефова сестра Бронька в подоткнутой мокрой юбке, тяжело покачиваясь, вышла из ворот с корытом мыльной воды, выплеснула воду прямо в середину дороги. Из-за приходского двора, оглядываясь по сторонам, вышел ксендз Немировский в наглухо застегнутом помятом костюме и шляпе, натянутой в этот теплый день до середины ушей, быстро глянул на чумазого Юзефа, сидящего в тени куста, оглянулся на Броньку и поклонился, как говаривал их покойный отец Адам, «бровями». С начала лета, когда в город вошли оккупанты, ксендзу пришлось научиться держать лицо и, как говорит Бронька, «держаться за Бога двумя руками»…»
