Product Details


Product Description

From Booklist

In the final volume of the Fallon series, which was written under the pseudonym Reagan O'Neal, Jordan ties up several plot strands from Fallon Blood (1995) and Fallon Pride (1996), yet still leaves threads dangling. Covering the years 1822 to the eve of the fight for Texas, Jordan twists the lives of Robert Fallon and the son he never knew, James, so that even though they never meet in person, they intersect through old friends and enemies. Robert contends with an unseen but not unfamiliar enemy in Charleston, and James faces trouble in Texas as he receives a land grant from Mexico, is drawn into the difficulties other American settlers have with the Mexican authorities, and collides with people who hate him just because of his name. Revenge, jealousy, lust, and hatred surround the Fallons to the very end as Jordan, who is actually best known for his Wheel of Time fantasy series, displays his flair for convoluted plots and attention to detail. Melanie Duncan


Product Description

The breathtaking conclusion to Jordan's acclaimed historical trilogy--following " Fallon Blood" and " Fallon Pride" --chronicles the Fallon family's fortunes as they travel westward, telling the tale of a father and son who never meet--but share a destiny.

5.0 out of 5 stars The best of the trilogy, Nov 26 2003
By C. T. Hunter "chips_books" (Gainesville, FL United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
In the Fallon Legacy, the story concentrates mostly on James Fallon, Robert Fallon's long lost son. The story takes you through James' adventures in the Texas frontier. Amidst much excitment and adventure, Robert Jordan is able to provide the reader with an extraordinary amount of history and culture from the Mexico/Texas region. The characters in this book are awesome. Some of the most loveable and hateable people I have ever read about. The Fourrier family continues to haunt the Fallons all the way up to the last chapter of the trilogy, but the Fallons are once again able to persevere, although with some heart-wrenching losses.
.

While the adventure and romance of this novel were very entertaining and fun to read, the best thing about the book, and indeed the whole trilogy, is the fresh perspective that it provides on the history and the culture of America 200 years ago. Books like this help to preserve our heritage.

4.0 out of 5 stars A glimpse into history, Nov 27 1999
By Chris M. Ash (michigan) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
The struggles and hardships of the revolutionary period and beyond are masterfully captured between robert jordans bookcovers.A story of a family that stems with importance but not to much to be mentioned in our histroy books, a stragegy thats as complicated to preform, but done so as not to quell the importance of the book.A book so flowing with intrigue and danger, the only dissapointment that it had was that it had to end, or until the sequel arrives which will be waited for inpatiently.

4.0 out of 5 stars Don't insult Jordan's writing ability with a movie idea
I've read the Fallon series and the WOT series and couldn't even imagine them being deplored by a movie. Never in my life have I seen a movie that compared to the book. Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars Robert Jordan is a genious!
The only thing I have to ask is: WHEN DOES THE MOVIE COME OUT? The Wheel Of Time movie would make the TITANIC look like the MINNOW!
