The Jeweled Sword #8 - Comic

Once again, the sand is running through the hourglass. This time, it's giving the Margalios brothers only eight days. A newborn Jewish baby awaits his bris. The Jews of the Caucasus are surrounded by enemies and traitors. And when they are swept into the flaming heat of the Chechnyan rebellion, Bunim, Ruvy, and Chaim Margalios find out that behind everything, there is a hidden cause. Why is Yosef, the metalworker in Derbent, tracking Ruvy's movements at night? Why is the "Tiger of Dagestan" determined to fight against Mother Russia? How do the leaders of the Derbent kehillah set a trap for the Margalios boys? Whatever the case, Gorgor won't refrain from putting on an acrobatic performance as a distraction... And the scarecrows that Karamzhian the Gray hates so much keep popping up everywhere. Between father and son, between treachery and devotion, between the plans that keep changing and the secret of the "magic number," The Jeweled Sword 8 sets a new standard of artistry. Come and be drawn deeply into a rare slice of geographical history, follow the threads of clever nuance woven into the plot, enjoy the stunning illustrations, and get a firm grasp on the ultimate Cause of all causes.
