    Unique opportunity for the reader to be transported and "experience" the Empire of the 10th century. So many dimensions of our ancestors' lives unfold, so many historical events that then determined the fate of the world and now we have not even heard of them, that it makes you wonder how little we know about our history and all that shapes our current character as a nation.
    The only thing I would like is battles and naval battles of such great dimensions as described, from a panoramic, if possible double-page, depiction of the battlefield in all its glory. The armies and fleets that took part would awe the reader. What power we had and how we wasted it by fighting among ourselves!

    The continuation of the first Kingdom King. The illustration is incredible and the story is now beginning to unfold. There is nothing like it.

    Excellent as the rest. Illustration that leaves you speechless and a story that keeps you engaged from beginning to end. And of course, the well-known consistency of the creators in the historical context.

    This review is about the add to your collection: Vol. 1: 1: Oath of Faith

    The story is very concise and gives the feeling that it was written hastily. It's a shame because Theofano was a masterpiece.

    Excellent illustration. Text faithful to the historical context and very interesting. A very good book in every aspect. After Theophano, the good work continues. Only thing is, I would have liked it to be a little longer in duration. I hope the next books in the history of the great King B will be released soon.
