Fantastic Conan-like action story about a Crusader returning to Europe to seek vengence on his father's killers.The series never was finished,and neither was Falcon's revenge on the killers.
Mark Ramsay is a nom de plume for John Maddox Roberts,author of the SPQR series.John,why don't you finish this series?

This is one of the best series I have read! I wish there was some way to convince the author to write more! Can anyone shed light on who the author is, and why no more in the series when #4 has a teaser for book 5?

I have loved this series since I first read the books back in the early 80s. I wish the author would write more - these books are very similar to Robert E Howard's Conan stuff, pure genius and pure fun! I suspect that Ramsay (he uses another name on his other stuff) doesn't regard these books as his best work, but I honestly believe the Falcon series captures something very special (perhaps unintentionally) and I treasure these stories.

These are great reads. Wish he wrote more than four books in the series.

I HAVE READ ALL 4 OF RAMSAYS BOOKS AND IF YOU ARE LOOKING FOR ELVES AND DWARVES DONT BOTHER. HOWEVER IF YOU ARE LOOKING FOR A REALISTIC ACTION ADVENTURE SET SOMETIME DURING THE CRUSADES THAT INCLUDES AN ENIGMATIC AND SOMETIMES BRUTISH HERO THEN THIS IS GREAT. THE PROTAGANIST REMINDS ME A LITTLE OF BARRY SADDLERS CASCA. VERY ENJOYABLE EVEN IF ITS NOT POLITICALLY CORRECT.
