Kiran. : The frozen god awakes (en Inglés)
Reseña del libro "Kiran. : The frozen god awakes (en Inglés)"
In the savage dawn of the Hyborian Age, where kingdoms are carved from the wilderness by the edge of a blade, few names inspire as much hushed awe in the gilded courts of Aquilonia or the shadow-drenched streets of Shadizar as Kiran of Cimmeria.
Born in the gloom-shrouded hills of the north-a land of grey skies, jagged rock, and eternal strife-Kiran is a quintessential son of Cimmeria. He is a giant of a man, his frame a corded map of scars and hardened muscle, possessing the predatory grace of a mountain panther and eyes the color of a winter sea.
The Cimmerian Spirit
Like all his kin, Kiran was forged in a culture that holds no truck with the soft philosophies of the civilized world. To a Cimmerian, life is a brief, brutal flash of lightning between two eternities of darkness. They worship Crom, a grim and distant god who breathes strength into a man at birth and then watches from his mountain throne with cold indifference. Kiran does not pray for aid; he relies on the steel in his hand and the iron in his will.
A Wanderer's Path
Kiran's journey began when he turned his back on the dismal crags of his homeland to seek the fabled "jeweled thrones of the earth." His path has been a bloody odyssey across the Hyborian continent:The Northern Wastes: Where he first bested the frost-giants and learned the bitter cost of survival.The Border Kingdoms: Serving as a mercenary, where he realized that the "civilized" man's treachery is far more dangerous than a beast's claws.The Serpent's Labyrinth: A feat of legendary endurance where he navigated the subterranean nightmares of an elder race, proving that his primitive instincts couldovercome even the most ancient sorcery.
The Frozen God Awakes
Now, Kiran faces his most harrowing trial yet. In the desolate south, where the ice has begun to reclaim the land, he has stumbled upon a truth that threatens the very fabric of the Hyborian world. As the Frozen God stirs from an aeon-long slumber, Kiran stands as the lone bulwark against a cosmic chill that seeks to extinguish the fires of humanity.
He is no knight in shining armor; he is a barbarian, a thief, a reaver, and a slayer. But in an age of crumbling empires and rising shadows, it is the Cimmerian's raw, unyielding strength that may be the only thing left to keep the world from falling into the abyss.
