Gemmell has every right to take his place amongst the SF and fantasy greats * SFX *
Gemmell is several rungs above the good - right into the fabulous -- Anne McCaffrey
Has everything a fan of heroic fantasy could desire -- Stephen Donaldson
I am truly amazed at David Gemmell's ability to focus his writer's eye. His images are crisp and complete, a history lesson woven within the detailed tapestry of the highest adventure. Gemmell's characters are no less complete, real men and women with qualities good and bad, placed in trying times and rising to heroism or falling victim to their own weaknesses -- R. A. Salvatore, author of Mortalis
Gemmell is very talented; his characters are vivid and very convincingly realistic -- Christopher Stasheff, author of the Wizard of Rhyme novels
