Yori is a Half-Blood, the son of a noble-born and hismistress. Raised alongside the king's degenerate legitimate children, hisintelligence and grace become the focus of their jealousy. After one fight toomany, the bastard is thrown into the streets with his mother, where they facethe harshness of common life. Alcoholism, prostitution, and the challengesof this new life forge in him a soul of iron, driving the young man to doanything necessary to take revenge on the paternal clan who evicted them socruelly. And thus he begins a cold and Machiavellian climb.Half-Blood isthe story of a fair count of Monte Cristo drowning in his thirst forrevenge. His is a fascinating climb back into power, placing his pawns witha wicked smile and the insolence of his youth, sweeping away any and allopposition. His madness is endearing to follow, like a Nero overlookingRome, to what is a final, tragic, and masterful ending. Set in thegiant-filled world of Petit, this parallel story stands alone, telling the taleof Yori and his own struggle to find his place among a family who would not havehim, their own dramatic politics and family history playing out in the shadow ofthe giants' castle that looms above their city.
