A review by mpuddefoot
Legend by David Gemmell
5.0
A real mix of the ‘Siege of Minas Tirith’ and ‘King Leonidas and the 300’!
Having just come from the first Mistborn novel, I was concerned I’d never be able to rate another book 5* again, however this was exactly what I need. Although without all the twists and turns of more modern fantasies, this has the feel of an epic Viking saga told around a roaring hearth on a cold winters night.
Having demolished it in a day, I can understand why David Gemmell is held in such high regards by his piers. I can’t wait to read more of the Druss the Legend!
