Historical Fantasy, indeed., Nov 3 1998
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Charlemagne's Champion (Paperback)
An interesting take on the Roland legend, with the eponymous hero in this incarnation being the son of Charlemagne himself and a witch--thus being somewhat supernatural. A subplot involving manifestations of pagan deities as swords gets rather convoluted, but the overall story is still fairly enjoyable, despite several historical inaccuracies. A good read for any fantasy fan, especially (in my estimation) young adults.

Charlemagne's Champion, Jun 20 2011
By Tom - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Charlemagne's Champion (Paperback)
If you want to read Beowulf in its original form this then this is not the book for you. However if you want a fun, quick read full of action and a worthy hero, then this is your book. The writing is excellent, the pace is perfect, and the small paperback genre goes well with the reading level.

There is a reason it is out of print, Oct 29 2003
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Charlemagne's Champion (Paperback)
An interesting take on the Roland legend... and when I say "interesting", I mean "crappy." The author manages to take some of the greatest characters of legend and rip the life out of them. Don't waste your time with this one - read the original "Song of Roland" instead.
