1.0 out of 5 stars Ouch, April 11 2004

By	Jason S Robinson (Ft. Worth) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I second many other people in saying this is one of the worst "fantasy" series ever. Now to be fair I never read the third book, I just couldn't make myself. Like someone else said, I don't mind sex in books, pretty much nothing offends me but this series has so much unneeded sex scenes it is ridiculous. I got the feeling the only fans of this series would have to be sex addicts, people who like their characters written extremely shallow, or young teenagers who get a kick out of the sex scenes.

It keeps coming back to the sex scenes, they are like every third page and go on and on and on and on and on...... The hero is a schlupp and the villian is laughable. I am never this harsh on a book usually but I am trying to hammer home to you people how bad this book and the first one are.

Do not waste your time!

5.0 out of 5 stars Amazing and truely brilliant!! A++++, Sep 28 2003

By	Tim Warf (VA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: The Demon King (Paperback)

I have never read a more fasinating book. One of the greatest fantasy authors of our time. Rober Jordan and others such as Tolkien can not compare to Bunch's vision. His writing is like poetry, while your reading you can clearly see the battle schemes in front of you and can even feel his characters' passion. Chris Bunch has done it again and I can't wait to see what glories you have for us in the furture.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Unique, Atypical Fantasy/Military Book, May 15 2002

By	"tysonfrits" (Brentwood, CA United States) - See all my reviews

This review is from: The Demon King (Paperback)

I am an avid military history and fantasy reader. Often the two genres don't mix, so I was pleasantly surprised when I read the series. It is doesn't follow the typical prosaic path of the average fantasy and it is able to suspend reality a bit more than the typical military history book. The book was much more gritty and graphic than a typical fantasy- which is nice considering that much of fantasy is written for a teen crowd, and as I am older now, I desire a bit more. The book took me through the gamut of emotions - I thouroughly enjoyed the book, and just reread it for the second time in 3 years. It was just as enjoyable the second time. The only other book I have read recently that goes into the darker parts of fantasy as does this series is Mathew Woodring Stover's "Heroes Die". If you liked that, you will definately like this as well.

I have seen poorly written books but I must say that this one is the king of bad. I am an avid reader and have always tried to remain open minded when reading various works. Read more

The Napoleonic Wars set in a fantasy world, including the retreat from Moscow and everything! Having said that, this is a pretty good series. Read more
