5.0 out of 5 stars A brilliant end to a series that I wish went on further., June 22, 2003

This review is from: The League of Night and Fog (Paperback)

While this series is small, it is one of the finest I have read. I won't spoil anything in the book, but make sure you read "The Brotherhood Of The Rose" and "The Fraternity Of The Stone" before you read this. It isn't IMPERATIVE, but it highly recommended. Also, once you get these books, clear out your weekend. You'll need it.

5.0 out of 5 stars Right on, September 22, 2003

By 

Jon Breda (Camano Island, Washington United States) - See all my reviews

This review is from: The League of Night and Fog (Paperback)

I can't help but give this book a perfect 5 out of 5. I can't quite pinpoint it but there is a certain way David Morrell writes his books that draws you in and keeps you interested every single page. I can honestly admit that I have never encountered a writer that can draw me into a book as much as David can. If you are thinking of buying this book, do it, but first buy The brotherhood of the Rose and The Fraternity of the Stone and read them. They a precursor to this book, you don't neccessarily need to read them but it is highly reccomended. Not only do they help with The League of Night and Fog but they are excellent books in themselves. The brotherhood of the Rose, The Fraternity of the Stone, and The league and Night and Fog all rank on my top 10 books to read. READ READ READ THESE BOOKS!!!!!!!!!!

This is the third and last book of trilogy. This book consist Saul Grisman and Drew Maclane characters together where they meet each other in the story for the first time. Be sure to read The Brotherhood of the Rose book first (Saul Grisman novel) and The Fraternity of the Stone book second (Drew MacLane novel).
