4.0 out of 5 stars
A page turner, couldn't put it down!
This book is one of the best I've read in a while. The interplay between Yourdon and Tasia made a great sub-plot, reminds me of when me and my fiance first met. Will there be a sequel? A very good fantasy novel. I highly recomend it.

So where's that sword after all?!,
By Silmarillion (Romania) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Sword of the Prophets (Paperback)
A story in the tradition of the Conan series, only without the "Barbarian" added to the hero's name.
Disgraced in the war , Yourdon is forced to make a new life for himself. After being exiled by his own father, fallen to drinking and then saved in extremis by allying himself with a merchant, Yourdon finally finds a new job: mercenary bodyguard. A series of assignements end up with an accusation of murder against his liege, a self made prophet. Yourdon gets saved then revenges himself. Very good technique, no surprises, no clear ending... And no sword of the prophets that I could read about in the whole book. Where's the sword? Was there any sword? What's the catch?? Or is there any?....

A TRUE WORK OF ART,
By GARY VINES GVines@webtv.com (EIZABETHTON TN. USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Sword of the Prophets (Paperback)
THE INTERACTION BETWEEN YOURDON AND TASIA IS ONLY PART OF WHAT MAKES THIS BOOK AS GOOD AS IT IS. IT REMINDS ME OF THE SHANNARA SERIES IN THE WAY THAT YOURDON MUST NOT ONLY COME TO GRIPS WITH THE POWER WITHIN HIMSELF BUT WITH HIS FATE AS WELL.
