5.0 out of 5 stars Mercy is not always kind, 20 Dec 1997
By A Customer
When a young Duke seeks to overthrow a vicious king for the good of the land, he is faced with performing atrocities of his own in obtaining his goal. The young daughter of the slain king is publically raped to seal the union of the Duke to the land; afterwards, he extends "mercy" to her and allows her to live. This act leads to three centuries of strife and despair, in which it is discovered that beauty is indeed only skin-deep, and that heroism is not limited by age, sex, or physical abilities.

This is a story of love, betrayal, courage, and of the extent to which one will go to seek revenge. It also examines the question of whether the ends can ever justify the means.

Mr. Card's characters are finely-drawn as always.

5.0 out of 5 stars One of my favorite books., 23 Jan 1998
By A Customer
It makes me sad to see this book going out of print. It's my favorite book by Orson Scott Card - I have read it over and over again. The images are very compelling. It sticks with me.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good, slightly dark fantasy novel, 4 April 2007
By Mr. Michael Doyle (Ireland) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Hart's Hope (Paperback)
This was a thought provoking novel, from one of my favourite authors. I enjoyed it, but would point out that it deals with some rather dark themes. Many of Card's novels (for example the Ender series) are suited to and enjoyed by young-adult readers. Some parents may not consider this novel suitable for their kids. If it was a movie it would definitely rate an 18 certificate.
