Sokak kavgasında tartışmalarında birbirini tanımayan tek milletiz herhalde. Önce tanışırız; “Kimsin ulan sen! Sen kimsin ula! lan sen kimsin?” Kendimizi de tanıtırız; “Sen benim kim olduğumu biliyor musun?” Bu tanışma faslından sonra da yapılacak vaatlerle devam ederiz; “Öldürürüm bitiririm seni, aklını alırım, harcarım seni, asarım, keserim, yatağından kaldırır, evinden aldırırım!” vs... Eyleme geçmeden önce de konuşmalar tamamlanır; “Öldün Oğlum, Bittin Sen!” Vs. Sonra ne olur, alttan alan olmaz yada araya giren olmazsa istenmeyen şeyler olması mümkündür. Kahramanımız Kenan Atilla Çırakoğlu’nun hikayesinde; bir sokağın başından sonuna kadar olan mesafede özetlenen hayatında, ömrü boyunca karşılaştığı, genelde istemeyerek hayatlarında dönüm noktası olmasından dolayı bir çok kişiden, sanki birbirleri arasında anlaşmışlar gibi “Öldün Oğlum, Bittin Sen!” naraları tehditleri işitmiştir.

A rollicking saga set a thousand years ago along the ancient Silk Road, by the Pulitzer Prize-winning author of The Amazing Adventures of Kavalier & Clay. Gentlemen of the Road is set in the Kingdom of Arran, in the Caucasus Mountains, between the Black Sea and the Caspian Sea, A.D. 950. It tells the tale of two wandering adventurers and unlikely soul mates, variously plying their trades as swords for hire, horse thieves, and flimflam artists–until fortune entangles them in the myriad schemes and battles following a bloody coup in the medieval Jewish empire of the Khazars. Hired as escorts for a fugitive prince, they quickly find themselves half-willing generals in a mad rebellion, struggling to restore the prince’s family to the throne. As their increasingly outrageous exploits unfold, they encounter a wondrous elephant, wily Rhandanite tradesman, whores, thieves, soldiers, an emperor, and the truth about their young royal charge, whose slender frame conceals a startling secret and a warrior’s heart.
