The passing of the Beasts....,
By Terran Trader (Bethesda, MD United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Day of the Minotaur (Minotaur Trilogy, Bk. 3) (Paperback)
This is an unusual mythical fantasy and love story, told from the point of view of Eunostos, last of the race of Minotaurs. For the most part in this story, humans behave in a beastly way, while the Beast races live a more peaceful life, until their forest is invaded by the Achaeans, warlike humans looking to take back two half-beast youths hiding there. Though feared by humans, the Minotaur is no monster: "By choice I am not a fighter, but a worker of gems and metals, a sometimes gardener, a peace-loving rustic, and finally a poet.... On the other hand, I did not fear the sword." When the Beast races are forced to fight, Eunostos leads the battle. A very good story, a quick read with a surprise ending, the story is a great example of why someone should not be judged by their appearance or manners. Recommended!
