Kern's wolfpack rages on, Dec 13 2005
By John J. Gormly "fallshirmjager" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Age Of Conan Cimmerian Rage (Mass Market Paperback)
Kern is a born leader, and the members of his "pack" recongnize the fact. He leads a motley crew of killers, men, women, Cimmerian and Aquilonian and Shemite, even a wild dire wolf named Frostpaw. They follow and Kern leads like the alpha wolf he has proven to be. These are the people of Cimmeria, the people of Conan.
Book 2 is even stronger than the first, and promises more views into the strange, white-haired giant-kin called "Ymirish," or Sons of Ymir, a fierce God of the north.

An improvement on an already good series, Aug 1 2005
By Smudge - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Age Of Conan Cimmerian Rage (Mass Market Paperback)
Kudos to Colman who took this series to another level with his second installment. Lots of action, an intriguing plot, and best of all more character development, Coleman successfully creates and carries the story through the second installment; a position that can often times be the weakest portion of a trilogy.
3.0 out of 5 stars
By Crom, not as good as the 1st!, July 18 2005
By Apollo Reader - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Age Of Conan Cimmerian Rage (Mass Market Paperback)
Book # 2, Cimmerian Rage, of Loren L. Coleman's Legends of Kern trilogy was good, but not as great as it should have been.
Even though this is in the age of Conan, it more feels like reading about warring tribes of Stone Age men. Just with a sprinkle of fantasy thrown in it.
And that's not a bad thing. This book, more so than the first, remined me strongly of William Sarabande's First American series. One of my favorites.
The weakness of this book is the same old warring factions. After a while, I really wanted new locales and new things to happen. And it did...somewhat. It got more interesting when Kern and Daol ran into the Galla spider people. And also when Kern starts recieving his Yirmish Call.
There are some good fighting sequences, but more dull ones in this one. The writing itself seems a bit more odd and hard to fathom and/or follow at times.
I'm not one to ruin the plot, so suffice it to say - read it just to find out where this goes, if you enjoyed the 1st one like me. But don't expect too much in this one. Pretty much same ol', same 'ol.
I just purchased the last and third installment. I hope for bigger and better things in Songs of Victory.
Listmania!
