About the book: year / ANNOTATION "Having passed the rows of tapestries and crowds of merry guests, he got out of the banquet hall and froze, looking at the rocky plain stretching almost to the horizon and a pine forest visible at the very edge of the sky. The fun that evening did not please him, and no matter how Lief tried to merge his mind with the crowd, his thoughts kept returning to the red-haired Gaul, whom he brought on the ship. Kadan - that was his name. Lief not knew since when he was interested in the names of slaves. As soon as he saw the fiery braids of the Gaul rushing in the wind, how thin fingers glide along the strings of the harp, a spell pierced his heart right through just the thought of the captive’s face, of his slender body, lined. thin muscles and barbaric patterns, caused Lief pain. Heat filled his stomach. “Damn Sami...” he muttered and added to himself: “But it seems that he could no longer hide anything from his brothers.”."
