The man who led the defending forces, Bardas Loredan, has fled to the island of Scona. Here, eschewing the violence that has characterised his life, he quietly establishes himself as a craftsman, fashioning bows. But Scona is also home to his brother and sister, who run a successful business on the island. Unfortunately, the Loredan siblings do not share happy childhood memories. They also take cut-throat competition literally. Both of which make a reconciliation with their brother far from easy. Before long, Bardas is thrown once more into a world of ruthless scheming and bloody rivalries. But it seems to be a world in which Bardas excels, and what he has learnt about the nature of bows is about to change his life - and the life of his family - for ever. The extraordinary story of 'The Belly Of The Bow' continues one of the most exciting new fantasy series of recent years:- Review(s): "An action-packed adventure, a thoughtful exploration of the vicious circle that is revenge.
