I don't want to spoil anything, It's basically told from the perspective of a very competent Dark Fantasy villain. Anti-hero doesn't apply, no saving the world, just looking out for himself, immortality has completely warped his sense of morality. Combine Robert E. Howards Conan and Michael Moorecocks Elric with H.P. Lovecrafts elder gods and history coming back to bite you on the ass, mix in Clark Ashton Smiths ability to create other worldly images, and sprinkle in some twisted concepts about how God really punished the biblical Cane. The writer has a background in Horror (all the best Sword and Sorcery writers do) and it shows. The setting is very bleak, hopeless and heavy metal.

If you're into Dark Fantasy then it's a must read.
