Product Description

Held captive by a mad cult, violence and chaos all around him, young Tolen is faced with a choice: to become a murderer, or to die a victim. When the ultimatum comes, will he be the one holding the sword, or the one at the end of it? Tolen must make the fatal choice: to join them in their rites of death, or become just another corpse. In the dark depths of a monastery catacomb, he will be forever changed, thrust into a world of violence, fanaticism and insanity. Yet in the brutal contests of the war-cult, Tolen will discover the truth of who he is. His own monstrous destiny forced upon him, the young man becomes the dark champion of those he should hate with all of his heart. Subjected to insane rituals, body-breaking training, and constant brain-washing, the young man is forged into a weapon of violence. As Tolen is led deeper into what the cult leaders claim is his destiny—his very birthright—he will be forced to come to terms with dark aspects of his true self that may shake both his sanity and the world around him.

This review is from: From a Stronger Steel (Corruption and Redemption) (Kindle Edition)
The author has created a compelling world in which to tell this tale of the timeless battle between good and evil. Well-developed characters and action-driven plot make this a great read for fans of sci-fi, fantasy, horror, and adventure books.

5.0 out of 5 stars Love the book., January 10, 2010
This review is from: From a Stronger Steel (Corruption and Redemption) (Kindle Edition)
Writers who take the road less traveled are the writers we all talk about. Mark's one of those writers. He really pushes the reader's ability to handle darkness. His writing also suggests some interesting views on society's struggle between spending time on one's personal goals versus spending time building relationships. Many can relate to Tolen's struggles.

It's also a fun read. The battle scenes have just the right amount of description. Some books don't paint a picture. Some books repeat too many details, boring the reader. "From a Stronger Steel" is neither of these. One of my favorite lines in the book is when he describes the howl of a sword, calling the sword "just as much an instrument of music as of murder."

Pick it up if you're looking for a dark fantasy. If you prefer something fluffy, you've come to the wrong place.

5.0 out of 5 stars great horror sci fi book, January 9, 2010
This review is from: From a Stronger Steel (Corruption and Redemption) (Kindle Edition)
This is a great book for those who read horror sci fi books. Good characters, action and story. This is not a book for those who like to read about kittens and puppy dogs.
