Title: an epic novel of Human Courage
Product review: In his latest novel, Lion's Blood, Mr. Barnes explores humanity and the human condition in the exceptionally thoughtful way he has become known for. This book has something for everyone, with exciting battles, romantic interludes and extreme personal challenges.Through the depth of his characters, Mr. Barnes really gets at a working definition of HUMAN COURAGE, and what it means to take personal responsibility, while existing in a world that does not seem to ALLOW personal responsibility. Men and women will both enjoy the strength of the characters.He creates a rich and plausible society, where black masters barter with the lives of white slaves. This fictional history allows us to grapple with questions like, "How could we let this happen?", "What can one person do to change the way things are?" and "How do we go forward from here?"A must-read for anyone, with a strong message about race relations & diversity that is a pleasure to get!
