Product Description

Product Description

The Drenai King is dead - murdered by a ruthless assassin. Enemy troops swarm into Drenai lands. Their orders are simple - kill every man, woman and child. But there is hope. Stalked by men who act like beasts and beasts that walk like men, the warrior Waylander must journey into the shadow-haunted lands of the Nadir to find the legendary Armour of Bronze. With this he can turn the tide. But can he be trusted? For he is Waylander the Slayer. The traitor who killed the King...


Ingram

Hunted by the Dark Brotherhood and the hounds of chaos, the Waylander must nonetheless try to stop Kaem's armies as they wage war on the Drenai lands, intent on killing every man, woman, and child there. --This text refers to the Mass Market Paperback edition.

5.0 out of 5 stars One of the Best!, Nov 12 2004
By Phillip (Canada) - See all my reviews
This novel was teriffic. David Gemmell could stand a chance to win fantasy's best writer award! Keeping in his tradition of heroic charicters and dark deeds this book kept me on the edge of my seat from start to finish. His ability to take a charicter, that under any other circumstances would be a villan and make him into the last hope hero is amazing. If you are tired of knowing exactly what to expect in a fantasy book read this and feel refreshed!

4.0 out of 5 stars Brilliant, Nov 5 2001
By Andreas Skylstad (Oslo, Norway) - See all my reviews
Reading this book is like watching a brilliant movie; you don't have to concentrate at all reading it. The words will just come flowing into your head, giving you a perfect image of what happens. Filled with surprises along the way to a brilliant end, this book is a must for everyone who likes heroic tales and\or fantasy in general.
With the exception of Tolkien, Gemmell proves with this book to be the best fantasy-author. Does not score a 5, however, because of a few clischès.

5.0 out of 5 stars Amazing, utterly amazing, Oct 4 2001
By Jarrett Bray (Saskatoon, Saskatchewan Canada) - See all my reviews
Waylander is the most unlikeable main character. He has little to no redeeming characteristics, yet he becomes the hope of a nation. He was the exectutioner, then the saint. The characters around him all act as foils, which only makes him seem stronger, more dominant. i read it straight through, i couldn't put it down. gemmell is the greatest author of our age, I wish he could write faster, because I'm running out of books to buy.

If you like the other Drenai books then you will love Waylander! This story is set before "Legend", and can either be read before or after. Read more

All of Waylander's instincts had screamed at him to spurn the contract from Kaem the Cruel, the killer of nations. But he had ignored them. He had made his kill. Read more
