High in the wooded mountains of Skeln, the woodsman, Dakeyras, and his daughter Miriel, live a life of solitude. Unbeknown to them, a group of bloodthirsty warriors stalk the mountains. Men who have never known defeat, to whom revenge and torture are meat and drink. For ten thousand in gold they are eager to kill the woodsman.

Great story, as are all the Gemmell novels i have read, but it was a little short and left me feeling like it could have developed into a fantastic work

I'm a Gemmell fan anyway, but Dakeyrass has got to at LEAST in my top 3 characters of all time. Book is a great pt2 of the Waylander story.

I have every book that David Gammell had published and have read each trilogy/saga at least three times. I've been waiting for the electronic copies to be released but wasn't expecting them to cost as much as the paperbacks especially when they only cost a fraction of the cost to produce. When there's no costs incurred for the paper, ink, binding material and transportation of books to shops and customers the publishers are just being greedy. Electronic books should cost no more than 1.99 in any currency. All that the publisher has done is deterred loyal David Gemmell fans such as myself from purchasing the electric copies and I'm sure also lessened the uptake from other readers wanting to try any of David's books. David Gemmell is a great author and believe me when I say that I would have purchased one copy of each book had I not fealt that I was being ripped off.
