Isak is a white-eye, born bigger, more charismatic and more powerful than normal men... but with that power comes an unpredictable temper and an inner rage. Feared and despised by those around him, he dreams of a place in the army and a change to live his own life, but the Gods have other plans for the intemperate teenager. Isak has been Chosen as heir-elect to the brooding Lord Bahl, the white-eye Lord of the Farlan. This is a time for revenge, and for the forging of empires. With mounting envy and malice, the men who would themselves be kings watch Isak as he is shaped and moulded to fulfil the prophecies that circle him like scavenger birds. The Gods are once again beginning to meddle in the affairs of men. Over five books we follow Isak's life and the fallout from the choices he has been forced to make - choices that may well lead to his death.

This series of novels is the best one I read in a long time, with so many interesting characters, making me want to always go on reading to know how they fare. The series is something out of the ordinary fantasy stories, coming up with new mechanics of mortals, magic and gods. The (main) antagonist isn't one I expected either. The reader learns about the antagonist step by step throughout the novels, which matches the nature of this antagonist perfectly.

I got through the first book of this omnibus and just stalled. Writing a review just to remind myself why. A very long involved D&D campaign with a ton of races, gods and their superhuman Chosen, creatures, magic and battles. The number of odd names, lead players and kingdoms did get confusing. This writing style reminded me of Edgar Rice Burroughs. The plot is often too convoluted for it own good, leaving the story muddled rather than a question to encourage reading for answers.

I was glad to be using an ebook because I often had to search out details mentioned earlier that suddenly were relevant. Entertaining but not memorable although if you like magic there's a heavy hand here. The characters were a little too He-man for my taste thus my reference to Burroughs.
