5.0 out of 5 stars Gemmell's best work., Jan 16 2004

By A Customer

Ce commentaire est de: Midnight Falcon (Paperback)

First of all I must confess to being a huge Gemmell fan. I love his style of writing. All Gemmell fans acknowledge 'Legend' as his finest novel, as despite it's flaws (of which there are many), it comes straight from the heart and is so pure that you cannot help but love it.

Midnight Falcon is the work of a more experienced author and while the story is not unlike many of his other tales, somehow this time the formula is 100% right. The action scenes are bisteringly hard and the villians are real people with their own needs and histories. Bane himself is definitely one of Gemmell's better characters. If you did not like 'Sword in the Storm' you have to realise it is just a backdrop to 'Midnight Falcon'.

If you are a fan of Gemmell or this type of heroic fantasy you must read 'Midnight Falcon'.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great story of men, Nov 5 2001

Ce commentaire est de: Midnight Falcon (Mass Market Paperback)

I am a great fan of Robert Jordan's Wheel of Time series, and thought few authors could bring me such thrill. I was wrong. Those two novels (along with Midnight Falcon) about the Rigante Saga fills a void in my heroic fantasy experience. Where Robert's Jordan's characters bore on my nerves at times, David Gemmel's ones are embrassing their fate without foolish emotions. I came to tears more than once for the reader is lead to believe in the characters.
This is the story of men, above that of a world. The magic stuff is not as intricate as Jordan's. I would have liked more insight on its nature.
If you are a SF fan, then there are great reads awaiting for you.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great saga
Gemmell purists will tell you that Legend is his greatest novel, and I think that's true. It has enormous passion and pace. Lisez davantage
