Wolf in Shadow | David Gemmell
2 posts | 6 read | 1 to read
"David Gemmell tells a very real adventure, the stuff of true epic fantasy." --R. A. Salvatore, New York Times Bestselling author John Shannow, The Jerusalem Man, lived in a world that had toppled on its axis. Civilization had been replaced by ruthlessness and savagery. Relentless in his quest for peace, Shannow followed a path that led only to bloodshed and sorrow. Abaddon, the Lord of the Pit, sought to plunge mankind into a new Satanic era. His Hellborn army spewed forth from the Plague Lands with an unholy force stemming from human sacrifice. For it was the blood of innocents that fueled the corrupted Sipstrassi Stones of Power--the source of Abaddon's might. But the Hellborn made a fatal mistake--they took the woman who had stolen Shannow's heart. He would move Heaven and Earth to save her or he would die trying. From the Paperback edition.

Wolf in Shadow ('Le pietre del potere' in the pic) was supposed to be a stand alone book. But comments from readers, who seemed to think John Shannow wasn't destined to die, as the author intended, convinced David Gemmell to write a #booksequel

David Gemmell is one of my favorit authors and this book is one of my favourite stories by him.
Just loved the idea of the multiverse, of different futures and the way the may shirt. Love so many ideas from this series... and Shannow is just such a complex character. Loved it

TrishB I love fantasy yet I've never read Gemmell! Where's the best place to start? 8y
Cinfhen Sounds super dark, but 👍🏻for today's prompt 8y
JazzFeathers @TrishB l'd start as l did with his first book, Legend. He's an authore who matured dramatically as he wrote, so it's worth following his evolution like it happend. Legend is still one of my favourite books from him, really quintessential of his esthetics 8y
JazzFeathers @Cinfhen l wouldn't really call it dark... but maybe it is 😉 8y
TrishB @JazzFeathers - thanks I will add to the list 😀 8y
