| DNF. I probably went into this with the wrong expectations. I loved King's Gotrek and Felix novels. When that series continued with different authors, I didn't enjoy it as much anymore. When I saw Kormak, I thought of it as the spiritual successor to ...more | |
"Did not like this one. It’s a rarity that I read a book as long as this and end up giving it a measly star but I can’t bring myself to add another. I know lots of folks out there really love this series and more power to them. If you love the book do"

“Our government rests upon religion. It is from that source that we derive our reverence for truth and justice, for equality and liberality, and for the rights of mankind. Unless the people believe in these principles they cannot believe in our government. There are only two main theories of government in our world. One rests on righteousness and the other on force. One appeals to reason, and the other appeals to the sword. One is exemplified in the republic, the other is represented by despotism.
The government of a country never gets ahead of the religion of a country. There is no way by which we can substitute the authority of law for the virtue of man. Of course we endeavor to restrain the vicious, and furnish a fair degree of security and protection by legislation and police control, but the real reform which society in these days is seeking will come as a result of our religious convictions, or they will not come at all. Peace, justice, humanity, charity—these cannot be legislated into being. They are the result of divine grace.”
