My good friend and fellow-writer Gildor_Inglorion knows a thing or two about books – and more specifically, about the fantasy genre from which seemingly no major work has escaped him. A little while ago, he gave me a copy of 'Legend' to borrow. Before I had the chance to read it though, it emerged that author David Gemmell had died. His death was a brief topic of conversation for us as I had heard little of the man, but the surprising media coverage surrounding the death of the 57 year-old fantasy author reminded me that I should get around to reading the novel that began his successful but sadly all-too-short career. Legend was first published in 1984, and ...

This is the first book written by David Gemmell, the first Drenai novel, and also the first of his books I’ve read. I can’t, therefore, compare this to his other work as yet. However, it also means I’m not going to be overwhelmed with his popularity and reputation as “the finest living writer of heroic fantasy” (as the front cover proclaims), so fans – don’t get annoyed if I’m not all gushy and hailing this as the best book ever, okay?! Thanks. That said, this IS a good story, and an impressive debut from a man who has gone on to fame and fortune. I would say this book is almost basic – by that I mean ...
