Coles A Son of the Gods: Restored Classics to Go Edition at Village Green Shopping Centre in Vernon, BC
*Product information may vary - to confirm product availability, pricing, shipping and return information please contact Coles
Ambrose Bierce emerges here as one of American literature's sharpest and most uncompromising voices, a writer of savage wit, exacting prose, and Civil War fiction that turns battlefield experience into unforgettable drama. These two compact stories show him at his best: psychologically acute, vividly imagined, and haunted by the price of heroism. In "A Son of the Gods," a lone horseman rides into deadly danger on a mission that demands courage, composure, and sacrifice, only to become a near-mythic figure in the eyes of the soldiers who watch his fate unfold. In "A Horseman in the Sky," Carter Druse, a Virginian who has chosen the Union cause, faces an even harsher test when duty forces him to shoot a rider who may be his own father. Set against stark mountain and battlefield landscapes, both tales explore loyalty, conscience, military necessity, and the tragic logic of war, where bravery and loss are inseparable. This edition has been fully restored with modern typesetting, custom cover design.
