Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Absolutely excellent horror fantasy short stories
Review: If you were immortal, what would your moral code be? Would you gain a reputation as bad Kane's? Would you develop skills like his to survive, especially if you were as certain of the demons that awaited you after death? Kane is not just a violent Sword and Sorcery anti-hero, he is a character you can identify with because you might make the same choices as he does. These are the best fantasy stories I've read, and re-read and read again!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Kane battles Lucifer for his soul.
Review: Kane finds himself near death from a recent battle under a strange moon. Taking refuge with his comrades in an inn he is subtley reminded of past transgressions here. A woman he has once wronged has made a pact with the devil promising her child, the result of her union with Kane, as payment for the devil's help in taking Kane's soul/life and repaying the torment he has given her in the life of her daughter. Kane discovers the pact through logic and the hints of his daughter while trying to escape those that pursue him for a different type of justice. Hampered by his wounds and the need to escape his pursuit, Kane must stop the raving woman from sacrificing his daughter to Lucifer and thus losing his own soul in the process. I highly reccomend the entire Kane series to anyone and of all the books this one is perhaps my favorite.

Summary: A Must-have for any serious Wagner collector
Review: These tapes contain readings of a number of stories from Wagner's "Night Winds" collection (this site contains numerous five-star reviews of that book), including Two Suns Setting and Lynortis Reprise. Unfortunately, its a fairly low-budget affair, and the voice acting leaves something to be desired. I recommend it more as a novelty than as a serious way to get into the stories. Still, if you like books on tape and can't find a print of the written version . . .
