Synopsis:
Skilgannon the Damned had vanished from the pages of history. No-one knew where he had gone, following the terrible triumph at Perapolis, and the assasins sent by the Witch Queen could find no trace of his passing. Three years later, a murderous mob gathers outside a monastery, faced by a single, unarmed priest. In a few terrifying seconds their world is changed for ever, and word spreads across the lands of the East — Skilgannon is back.
Now he must travel across a perilous, demon-haunted realm seeking a mysterious temple and the ageless goddess who rules it. With assassins on his trail and an army of murderous foes ahead, the Damned sets off on a quest to bring the dead to life. But he does not travel alone. The man beside him is Druss the Legend.
In this tale of love, betrayal and treachery, in a world torn by war, White Wolf examines the nature of heroism and friendship and the narrow lines dividing good and evil.

This book rocks! It has everything you would expect from Gemmell - wicked villains, heroes skilled at meting out and taking incredible amounts of punishment, and a map of the Drenai world! This book includes the character of Druss the Legend - probably his most favorite character (I am assuming that anyway.) it's like meeting up with an old friend. No one writes action like the way Gemmell does, except for maybe Robert E. Howard. He even manages to throw in some philosophy as well, but above all, it entertains. If you like action and direct plot lines, this is a book for you.
