Rating: Summary: You MUST read this! Review: Gemmell's genius for storytelling is again beautifully demonstrated in this book, the second in this wonderful series. I had become disappointed with modern fantasy and Gemmell came to the rescue! Once again the characters are so real you believe in them and the story just makes you feverishly turn the pages to see what comes next. Do yourself a favour and read this series, which begins with "Ghost King".
Rating: Summary: Once You Read One Book by Gemmell ~ You Will Be Hooked! Review: Once You Read One Book by Gemmell ~ You Will Be Hooked!I had read in several places about what a great author David Gemmell is. I had not read any of his books, and when read the descriptions on the back covers, I did not think any would interest me, so I put of buying any. Well, when I finally picked one up and read it, I could not put them down. I quickly read through the Riganti series, which I loved and wanted more. Ever since I have been a HUGE Gemmell fan. His characters are the most realistic, no matter waht the story brings them. They are flawed, real, human, and yet heroes and incredible fantasy images all in one. I love how Gemmell gets me to feel for the characters and what is going on with them. The first two Sipstrassi Tales, Ghost King and The Last Sword of Power, are my favorites. Maybe because I have a tendency to read as much about King Arthur, and the other main characters surrounding him in myth. But they bring to you a new sense of Fantasy. Once you read a David Gemmell book, your standards will be higher, and you will be hooked on him!!
Rating: Summary: The last sword of power Review: The Goth leader Wotan would open the Gates of Hell, with power that stemmed from sorcery and human sacrifice. No sword could cut him, and his armies cut a bloody swath. Only Uther Pendragon could save Brittania--and even he would have to wield Cunobelin's blade, the last sword of power
