Bred on the rolling hills of the steppes of southern Russia, Tambor, a young Tatar lord, has his mind on one thing: to avenge his grandfathers death by impaling after having failed to destroy the city of Cherny Yar. But Tambors resolve, while in no way abated, takes on a deeper meaning as a result of an intense relationship with his sworn-brother Nissim, his former slave. A Greek slave, brought from the Turkish Empire, Nissim exposes Tambor to a much wider world and gives him a deeper insight into his own destiny. Together, these two warriors battle both the world without and the world within.
