In this strange world those who can fight always land in the arena and from there they never come out. The thing is simple i.e win the competition and get your freedom but no one has been able to compete till the end. Azrael gets lucky because he gets the support of some prisoners who try to hide his identity in order to keep him away from the arena for as long as they can.
Still, when the time comes, this young lad has to fight for his life and the fate of his kingdom. Earthdom and Equatorial took the audience on a voyage in outer space, this one has done almost the same thing in a different style. After reaching Tech Duinn the author does not talk about the space anymore and the focus is shifted to the arena. If anyone could narrate such a series then it is Steve Campbell and his selection as the narrator was the right decision.
