MediaDB / «The monsters were kind to me" Henry Lyon Oldie: download fb2, read online
About the book: 2012 / Once in the dungeons of Shannuran, where the monstrous Black Widow reigns, three people came together: the boy Crush, the adopted son of the Widow, the great magician Simon The fiery and adventurer Wulm of Segentarra. Twenty years later, fate brings them together again. The boy has grown up, responds to the nickname Cyclops and wears a leather bandage covering his forehead. After a battle with a demon, the magician is seriously ill - and is forced to seek help from Cyclops. As for the adventurer, he learned well that only dragons have the last laugh. In winter, in the snow that has covered the gloomy city of Ter-Teset, this trio will be hot. The amulets adjuster Ines di Salvare dies, whom the disease turned into a monster, and Cyclops - Ines's faithful servant - decides to continue the mistress's research, which was laughed at by the strongest wizards in the area... The authors dedicated the novel "Cyclops" to Robert E. Howard, one of the fathers of modern fantasy. However, the scenery of “might and magic” only emphasizes the realism of the story. The first book of the novel also includes the stories “Son of the Black Widow” and “Prince of Beasts” - pictures of the past lives of the heroes.
