Book description
The Drenai fortress of Dros Delnoch has fallen and blood hungry Nadir
hordes sweep across the land, bringing desolation and despair. But, with
the Nadir triumphant, slavers seize a young girl in the tiny realm of
Gothir and a peasant boy sets off on a quest that will shake the world.
To rescue her, Kiall must cross the savage steppes and journey through
the Halls of Hell, facing ferocious beasts, deadly warriors and demons
of the dark. But the boy is not alone. With him are the legendary heroes
of Bel-Azar: Chareos the Blademaster, Beltzer the Axeman and the bowmen
Finn and Maggrig. And one among them hides a secret that could free the
world of Nadir domination. For he is the Nadir Bane, the hope of the
Drennai. He is the Earl of Bronze. David Gemmell's first novel, LEGEND
was published in 1984, beginning his acclaimed Drenai saga. He was
widely regarded as Britain's king of heroic fantasy. He died in July
2006.
