YIELDING THE SWORD OF PROPHESY,
By
This review is from: SWORD, THE (Hardcover)
Daniel Easterman [Dennis MacEoin] is an Islamic studies academic (and a former Bahaist) who has always published novels with a realistic grasp of international power games. And real people getting caught in the gears of said games. When it comes to near East political yarns, there is simply no contest: Easterman delivers.
As with other novels, THE SWORD is page turner with each crisis resulting in an even higher level of urgency. The balance of the world seems to hang on every turn the hero takes and every bullet he fires. The main problem with Easterman's novels (ever since the The Seventh Sanctuary), is the writer's eagerness to kill off main characters or their loved ones. Sometimes these deaths serve as character motivation. Sometimes they are just pointless. Not for light reading but recommended. |
