The tyrannical rule of the Deacon and his Jerusalem Riders has unleashed upon the world a sea of bigotry and hatred, where Unbelievers and Mutants are massacred in the name of God and Peace. And the long-vanished Jerusalem Man is now considered a saint of the new order.

To speak ill of his memory is heresy. But when the church in Pilgrim's Valley is burnt to the ground and its congregation is slaughtered, a rider appears and hunts down the killers. And word spreads - the Jerusalem Man is back!

Hunted and alone, Jon Shannow must battle the forces of the Deacon - and face a terrible enemy from another universe, a dark god who feeds on the souls of worlds.

If you ever considered the possibility of reading a book about a time travelling, bible quoting gunslinger, with vampires, werewolves, shoot-outs at high noon, heroes and heroines, crusaders and carnage, with a central character who lives his life with unapologetic principles, then this is the serie for you.

I've read in other reviews that the accents were all over the place; differing English dialects, French, deep Southern, Scottish and Irish. Don't let that sway you. It brings a richness to the story, breathing life into the various characters. I loved this trilogy. David Gemmell weaves strands and words that brings worlds, lives, and loves to life.

Another David Gemmell tour-de-force

I love David Gemmell books. I have them all in hardcopy, but love to listen on journeys too.

To avoid spoilers, I will not say anything specific about the story... It does not take away from the main thrust of the story, but I feel the epilogue to this installment (which is missing from this recording) gives a nice coda to the Jon Shannow series.

I agree with some of the other commentators regarding all the accents, in some instances they feel a bit stereotypical and made me wince. In my mind (despite me being British) I have always imagined the majority of the characters as having Midwestwrn American accents... although there is nothing in the books to indicate one way or another.

Love the book but the Epilogue is missing
