The Red Knight is leading a band of lawless mercenaries. To order, it itself must be well born, being lucky and being with sword in hand. This is great, the Red Knight combines all these qualities! Back in Alba after a campaign, the company is committed to defend a victim monastery raids but everything is not so easy nen We will say no more to not spoil the discovery! First novel (his real name) Miles Cameron is a marvel of "fantasy" story is set up very quickly, it has a steady pace and promises to take lampleur and mystery in the other two planned volumes. The writing is simple, straightforward, no frills with narration that is the point of view of several characters: this can confuse readers but sy done quickly because this is a process used by many authors. The characters are endearing: few have a real charisma, but we are surprised to appreciate follow through the pages. If you liked works as "The Black Company" for example, you can not quaimer "The Red Knight, Tome: 1 Renegade," which incorporates the principle of "mercenary company". But do not think that oeuvre by Miles Cameron is a pale copy! There is nothing nen: this is an excellent first novel, with an atmosphere approaching the "dark fantasy", a plot in full development and that promises a lot. It lets devour the beginning to the end and we do not want only one thing left: to have a result as soon as possible!
