The famous American writer John Jakes takes readers into a fantasy world where two forces are fighting: Yog-Saggoth - the god of Evil and the Nameless God. The main character of the book, the wanderer Brek, will have to, although not of his own free will, take the side of good and prevent dark forces from taking over the world. The dark god Yog-Saggoth has spread his black hand over “civilized” countries. He is opposed by the Nameless God, whom the barbarian Brek serves, even if sometimes without knowing it. Expelled from his tribe, Brek goes to distant golden Kurdistan, and his journey is more like a crusade against Evil. Bloody battles, long roads and love await the barbarian from the northern plains. But nothing can resist Brek's blade - neither monstrous creatures, nor treacherous robbers, nor disgusting sorcerers... Ancient idols crumble, vile sanctuaries crumble and the DEMON SIGN is erased.
