5.0 out of 5 stars Knights or the blood, January 15, 1998

By A Customer

This review is from: At Sword's Point (Knights of Blood) (Paperback)

Fast paced,fun story line. Ok so it's not war and peace, who cares! the first book is about adventure. Like watching a great flick on tv.

4.0 out of 5 stars This book is great!, July 13, 1998

By A Customer

This review is from: At Sword's Point (Knights of Blood) (Paperback)

I read this book the first time two years ago, and I have read it three more times since. Although some of the plot is not believable (it is called FICTION for a reason), it is interesting because of that fact. I have read some of the other reviews, and I have to say that if you had problems following the plot twists, or were unable to understand what was going on, I recommend you read a different style of material.

Yes, some of the little details do tend to get boring, but without the details, you loose the sense of the characters. I had no problem with the amount of gore. In fact, compared to the usual books I read, this is quite tame. The only problem I had was trying to find a copy of the first book. I have to rate this as one of the better books I have read. And I have read thousands.

The character of Drummond is well played, although their are some inconsistencies. The authors did an excellent job of writing the scenes at the old casle with the Knights. The ! ! opening with the first deaths was very well done. The descriptions of the way in which the two lovers died is eerie. The ending is not overly surprizing, but it still manages to get your attention.

All in all, I found the book a very good read. I recommond it to anyone who has a good idea of what is reality and what is not. Also, if you just enjoy reading a book without having to worry about it being believable or not. Thank you.

3.0 out of 5 stars A Decent Sequel, August 2, 2001

I'll admit, this book was not as good as the first, but I still enjoyed it quite a bit.
The only complaint I would have is that book 3 is so long in coming... because the end of this book left me hanging.
To the guy who whined that the characters are unpredictable... would you prefer they WERE predictable?
