Produktbeschreibung
The clash of arms: A romance examines how ideals of loyalty and justice fracture under personal grief and public responsibility. It contrasts internal suffering with outward strength, showing how quiet anguish can persist even within a world that valorizes bold action. The narrative centers on the emotional aftermath of betrayal, where vengeance is not simply about violence, but about reclaiming lost dignity and restoring trust. Brotherhood becomes a mirror for divergent responses to pain one introspective and worn by sorrow, the other driven by outward resolve. The story resists easy reconciliation, instead portraying how conflicts of honor deepen as personal history collides with political expectations. Reputation is both shield and burden, shaped as much by perception as by action. Through its slow unspooling of motive and revelation, the novel reveals how the past insists on being acknowledged, whether through vengeance, forgiveness, or silence. The result is a layered study in how people confront the parts of themselves they ve long concealed especially when stirred by duty or love.
Autorenporträt
John Edward Bloundelle-Burton was an English novelist born around 1850 and passed away on December 11, 1917. He began his career as a journalist, working for The London Standard, before transitioning to writing novels in 1885. Over the course of his career, he published a total of 60 works, which include a variety of historical novels and tales of adventure. His works often explored themes of moral conflict, personal identity, and historical events. Some of his notable books include The Silent Shore (1886), Desert Ship (1890), Denounced (1896), and A Bitter Heritage (1899). His novels were well-received during his time, but today he is often regarded as a somewhat forgotten author of late Victorian and Edwardian literature. Despite this, his contributions to historical fiction, particularly his vivid storytelling and engagement with past events, remain part of his literary legacy. Bloundelle-Burton's writings provided readers with a mix of adventure, drama, and moral dilemmas, showcasing his skills in crafting engaging narratives. His influence can be traced in the works of later authors within the genre of historical fiction. He was the son of Edward Bloundelle and Burton.
