I read this book about 3 or 4 years ago. One of my friends surgested it to me as he had read it and thought it was a great book. He let me borrough his copy of this perticular book. I started to read this at about 10 oclock at night thinking i would get bored of it and just put it down at about 11 and go to sleep. I started and just couldn't stop it was so good i looked at the clock from what i thought had been about half and hour of reading and notist it had gone midnight. I was truley astonished. It is a really great book which gives an outline of one of gemmels great characters Druss. Some of his other books most notible Legend give a more detailed look into this mans life. I would say that this is one of the top three books from Mr David Gemmel and one of the best i have ever read. Ok on to the book the main characters are Talisman, Sieben and Druss who are all fighting against the tribes of Nadir who have taken control of the Gothir people. Garen-Tsen, the sadistic power behind the Gothir throne, believes the magical gems will lead him to glory, and sends the elite soldiers of the Gothir army to sack the Shrine and defeat the few defenders. They cannot lose: five thousand men against a handful of savages and a renegade Drenai warrior. But the savages are led by one of the most brilliant strategists of the day. And the renegade is Druss the Legend.
The book is rather quite detailed on the battles and describes them briliantly. There is a lot of gore if there can be in a book and gives you a feeling that you really are there standing next to Druss seeing him swing his huge axe killing tribes man after tribes man.
