He emerges from these pages as a clearly defined personality; brave, aggressive and quick. The core of the story is Theseus' Cretan adventure. Customer Reviews Review of Renault's 'The King Must Die' Renault offers a slow, pensive biography of Theseus. I won't deny there are some stirring moments in this novel, but I insist that it is too reflective to get any real rises out of its reader. Moreover, I'm not sure that this thoughtful novel really has much to say. There are no strong centers of consideration in this workno themes of the reader to latch on to. Overall, 'King' was a careful, sleepy retelling of the life of Theseus. The Bull Leapers' Revolt "The King Must Die" by Mary Renault is an excellent read. At times, this historical novel of the ancient legendary (perhaps mythical, perhaps not) Greek hero Theseus becomes a magical page-turner, filled with excitement and adventure.

Set in the years surrounding the Russian Revolution and the rise of the Soviet Union, Said's tale of an Azerbaijani Muslim boy in love with a Georgian Christian girl is both tender and disturbingly prescient.
