Summary: Another excellent Highlander story
Comment: I really enjoyed this addition to the Highlander legend, particularly as it expanded on an intriguing flashback from the TV series -- when Duncan knew Hamza el Kahir in the 1600's in Algeria.
For martial arts fans, the info about fighting styles (particularly scimitar vs other swords) is very interesting.
Rating: 4
Summary: Cutting edge
Comment: Not bad. This is a excellent Highlander book to read.
This author is kind enough to delve into Duncan MacLeod's and Hamza el Kahir's relationmship and history. I enjoyed understanding Macleod's adventure in Middle East.
Rating: 4
Summary: Excellent read
Comment: I was *very* hopeful when I picked up this book that it would do the TV show justice. This book not only does that, but does an excellent job of showing how the series could be, instead of regaling the flashbacks to mere minutes within the story. Here, as in the other Highlander novels, the flashback *is* the story, providing no small enjoyment and fulfillment to the fan crying out, "More history on Duncan MacLeod, please!"
Having just watched the movie version of "Finale", the episode which inspired this story, I was really psyched and ready for an explanation on how in the world MacLeod found himself in Algiers in 1653. It's not necessary to have seen or remember the episode to enjoy the whole story, as the flashback is deftly woven into the story itself. The reader is grabbed into the story and taken along for a really good ride. I really think this is an excellent read
However, I do have a quibble about the ending, and until I started typing this, I didn't realize it, as I'd enjoyed the story so much.
