Query: There's Better Books!

Well - this review is obviously in the minority here! After having read the exciting and spellbinding "The Saxon Tales" by Bernard Cornwell, and the fantastic storytelling of Judson Roberts in "The Strongbow Series", I really expected (and wanted )to like this book. I didn't. I found the writing style excessively philosophical, the characters except for Skilgannnon, rather predictable, and overall was bored by the story and the writing style. Sorry guys.
