No ako druhé zo série som dostal začiatok a už chápem Oko za oko. V tejto úvodnej časti je rozprava o návrate rangera, ktorému neviem prísť na meno, naspäť medzi svojich ľudí severanov. Dostáva sa do stareho sváru medzi nimi a obrami, ktorí chcú pomstu za starú krivdu.

Being a fan of the Demonwars series, I found the art to be a good representation of the characters - but I honestly enjoyed the short story at the end featuring a powrie, Grave Mungo, more than the graphic novel itself.
Trial By Fire focuses on an untidy alliance between a religious, magic-using group (the Abellicans) and a barbaric-type settlement in the harsh winter-climate of Alpinador, as they face a group of giants and their demon lord. It moved at a very fast pace and I was somewhat confused at part of the ending. I don't usually read graphic novels however, so maybe they are supposed to read fast.
At the end of the graphic novel, there is a short story entitled "Three Ships" about a young powrie named Grave Mungo. Grave Mungo is different, as he isn't just a blood-thirsty powrie. He is a blood-thirsty powrie with reason. I would like to hear more of him but I think that's doubtful considering this was his only appearance as far as I know and this novel is over ten years old.
For those of you just discovering the land of Corona (why he named it after a cerveza I will never know), I highly recommend you check out Salvatore's original DemonWars series, starting with The Demon Awakens
