Summary

The Legend

Druss, Captain of the Axe: the stories of his life were told everywhere. Instead of the wealth and fame he could have claimed, he had chosen a mountain lair, high in the lonely country bordering on the clouds. There the grizzled old warrior kept company with snow leopards and awaited his old enemy, death.

The Fortress

Mighty Dros Delnoch, protected by six outer walls, the only route by which an army could pass through the mountains. It was the stronghold of the Drenai Empire. And now it was the last battleground, for all else had fallen before the Nadir hordes.

And hope rested on the skills of that one old man....

Legend

David Gemmell and Barrett absolutely gold...

Growing up in my teens and early 20s are used to wait anticipated the next book of David when I found out he died I was truly upset his books taught me how to love books

I didn't know him but I miss him and have always tried to find writer to replace him which is impossible

Thanks for the adventures

a book that lives up to its tittle.

I have read it many times and this is the first time it's been read to me.

I enjoy all of his books and can't wait to fill my phone with this format.
