"Gemmell is several rungs above the good--right into the fabulous"
-Anne McCaffrey
Product Description
Under the brutal oppression of the Gothir, the Nadir tribes dream of the Uniter, the Great One, who will bring the tribes together, and end their centuries of torment.
But for one man it is more than a dream. Talisman, a mysterious and enigmatic Nadir warrior, rides out to the Shrine of Oshikai Demon-bane, seeking the legendary eyes of Alchazzar, twin jewels of enormous power that will light the path to the Uniter. With him rides the beautiful Zhusai, a mystic tormented by the ghost of a long-dead Nadir queen.
But others desire the secret of the jewels.
Garen-Tsen, the sadistic power behind the Gothir throne, believes the magical gems will lead him to glory, and send the elite soldiers of the Gothir army to sack the Shrine, and butcher the few defenders. They cannot lose: five thousand men against a handful of savages and a renegade Drenai warrior.
But the savages are led by one of the most brilliant strategists of the day. And the renegade is Druss the Legend.
The Legend of Deathwalker is the latest battle-charged story of love, romance and heroism from the author of
Ironhand's Daughter, and continues the cycle of Druss stories begun in
Legend and
Druss the Legend.
