David Gemmell tells a tale of very real adventure, the stuff of true epic fantasy. <br>--R. A. SALVATORE<br> New York Times bestselling author<br><br> Gemmell's great reading; the action never lets up; he's several rungs above the good--right into the fabulous! <br>--ANNE MCCAFFREY<br><br> I am truly amazed at David Gemmell's ability to focus his writer's eye. His images are crisp and complete, a history lesson woven within the detailed tapestry of the highest adventure. Gemmell's characters are no less complete, real men and women with qualities good and bad, placed in trying times and rising to heroism or falling victim to their own weaknesses. <br>--R. A. SALVATORE<br> New York Times bestselling author <br> of The Demon Apostle
