!!!David Gemmell!!! - An insight into his life.

[ArkeL]

Just waiting for paper back cover copy to be released! And then ... reading time!

 

[ArkeL]

BTW This is the way I think the drenai novels should be read ( in storyline order )
(I didn't read King beyond the Gate and Quest for lost Heros so don't know about them)
But I think this is perfect:

1. WAYLANDER
2. Waylander 2 In the realm of the Wolf
3. Hero in the Shadows
4. The First Chronicles of Druss the Legend
5. The Legend of Deathwalker
6. White Wolf
7. LEGEND
8. Swords of Night and Day

The story and characters link together nicely if reading in this order!

The king beyond the gate goes between 7&8.

Bane is a ******* Clareabella. I enjoyed David Gemmell's last two books immensely, and I can not say too much without spoiling the books for you.


****Spoiler****

Gemmell goes back in time and creates another story with Druss in it, this story then allows for Druss to be reincarnated in the future. Other than this obviously desperate ploy to write another novel about Druss, the story works. However, I can not help but feel that Gemmell simply felt the need to offer an alternative ending to some of his characters lives. I suppose that this the benefit of writing fantasy, there are no limitations.

The king beyond the gate goes between 7&8.

YEAH ur right! I've just read review on King beyond the gate and the story seem to follow after Legend hehe

 

[Seth God Of Chaos]

Actually they mention it in waylander2

 

[Lacedaemonian]

I have read all of the books and I can not put them into order. It would require big Dave himself phoning me up and giving me the book order before I even considered any level of agreement.

Actually they mention it in waylander2

How can it be mentioned in Waylander 2 if the story in King Beyond the Gate is set about 150-200 or something years after Waylander?
Or am I misunderstanding something?

 

[ArkeL]

OHHH WAIT!!! just remembred!In Waylander 2 'Dardalion sharing his memories with Khesa Khan of paths of the futer and Tenaka Kan is mentioned!'
YUP I see now! ^_~
