J. Robert King (Author)

Book Description

Publication Date: January 1, 2003

In Titanic Battle, the World Stands Divided.

On the side stand the followers of Phage, who cry out for new arena combats, new champions, new blood spilled in the sand. On the other are the supporters of Akroma, the angel, who preaches a terrifying religion hallowing her creator.

In the middle stands the lonely figure of Kamahl. Once a champion of the pits, he must now atone for the terrible wrongs he has wrought. Those wrongs gave birth to Phage and Akroma. They gave birth to the suffering of the world.

Now Kamahl must sweep the land clean of this terrible blight. But his fury may destroy that which he most loves.

5.0 out of 5 stars Legions- The fifth book in a 6 part SERIES!, April 9, 2003

This is an excellent book worthy of praise. It is not a book to be read as a stand alone novel. It is the fifth book in a six part series, so it would behoove you to read the first five. The people that bad mouthed the book for some reason read this one without reading the previous books. The entire series is a wonderful collection to have, especially if your a fan of swords and sorcery.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Book, September 29, 2003

This review is from: Legions (Magic: The Gathering: Onslaught Cycle, Book 2) (Mass Market Paperback)

This was a great book, I don;t care what anyone else says about it. I wish Ixidor was in it though but still, Waistcoat and Sash were a great add on though I was very sad when Umbra sacrificed himself for his friends. Akroma is a witch, and I hope once you read this book you feel the same. I kind of believed in Ixidors vision and hated it when he refused to come back from the worm. (Though I here he comes back in Scourge) Phage is cool though except for the fact that she rots anything she touches. Great Book

5.0 out of 5 stars A very interesting book, June 2, 2003

By A Customer

This review is from: Legions (Magic: The Gathering: Onslaught Cycle, Book 2) (Mass Market Paperback)

At first, when my friend told me about this, I expected a boring book about stragne creatures that fight. BIIIGG DEAAAL I thought.
But I was in for a shock. This book is interesting, not just fighting and strength, but about strategy aswell. Deserves 10 out of 5, but i can only give it a 5.
