Summary: Frank Frazetta's Death Dealer:Prisioner of the Horned Helmet
Review: I thought this was a great book, but some people might not like it because it is so bloodly and gory. It's the best book I have ever read and the best one in the Death Dealer series. Frezetta and Silke really bring to life the characters in the story. AJ, age 12

Summary: Great cover art, but VERY weakly written
Review: I've read well over a thousand science fiction and fantasy books in the last 20+ years, and this book easily ranks as one of the most poorly written I've encountered. Great story premise ... but poorly written.

Frazetta should stick with painting, because he's great at it ... but as a writer, he's a trite and amateurish hack.

Save your money, and just admire the cover art, trust me. Better still, go buy some of Robert E. Howard's original Conan books, if you need a decent heroic-fantasy fix. If you like your sword and sorcery a little more exotic, try Michael Moockcock.

Summary: this book is great!
Review: james silke did a great job adapting frank frazettas most famous paintings into a novel series,far better than the trashy comic glen danzig put out !the story is very good,the characters really come alive.while the series may not be for every one due to it's violent nature and graffic content,but if you like dark fantasy this book is for you!and i highly recommend the other books in the series.

Summary: Prisoner of the Horned Helmet = Great!
Review: This book series, (The Death Dealer series) seems to be very rare. I am surprised at this! The books are great! Well... as a typical teenager, I am into books with a fantasy theme. The Death Dealer books are one of the book series I have read, and also my favorite book series. The author, James Silke, really knows what to write to inspire a good feeling in the reader! The hero, Gath of Baal, Is somewhat like a "Conan" character. Yet he does 'Un- Conan like things" in the book. Oh! By the way, these books are probably the MOST VIOLENT books you will ever read. for example: Gath, in one of the books, rips off someone's arm, and BEATS HIM TO DEATH WITH IT! then beats the assailants friends with it too. he carries around a huge axe, and the art on the covers is GREAT! this is the only book series I have ever read, that the cover was not only really cool, but the cover ACTUALLY HAPPENS IN THE BOOK!!! The second you see the art on the cover of "Prisoner of the Horned Helmet" you will want to read the book more that anything! trust me... order this book! it isn't expensive, and it is REALLY WORTH THE MONEY! Thanks for listening! Chris Gline HUT software

Summary: Death Dealer #'s 1, 2, 3 & 4
Review: This is quite possibly the best series I have ever read. I just recently finished the 4th book and I was amazed how James Silk could keep such a good storyline throughout the entire series. I personally recommend these books to my friends and they have had nothing but rave reviews for them also. Very descriptive, makes you feel like you're there.

Summary: Prisoner of the Horned Helmet
Review: This title told a gripping story about one man's power, and some weaknesses that nearly destroyed him. After finding a cursed helmet of power, Gath of Baal must decide to either keep the helmet that could potentially destroy him, or to harness its power, adding it to his already awesome might. This book is powerfully descriptive, and captivating. Anyone could enjoy a book like this simply for its lengendary struggle. Highly recommended

Summary: Excellent reading by an excellent Author!
Review: Too bad that all the books I tend to like seem to go out of print. I read this whole series and it so phenomenal! At first, I read this book becuase Frank Franzetta is one of my favorite artist! I saw the cover and I had to have this book. So when I found out James Silke was the writer, I was a bit skeptical because I never heard of this guy. But much to my surprise, I was exilerated by the captiving story! I'm surprised that James Silke does not have any other books out there besides this series! I've always feel that this character should be recogonized & exploited but I don't think it will ever happen! If anyone ever get a copy of a book of the this series, please never let it go! It one of those series that will be legenadary in your life and be willing to talk about!
