Summary
The second audiobook of Skilgannon the Damned, from the acclaimed author of Legend.
Even in death, Skilgannon the Damned's name lives on. Now, as an ancient evil threatens to flood the Drenai heartlands in a tide of blood, he returns....
A thousand years after they fell in battle, two heroes - Druss and Skilgannon - are revered throughout the war-torn lands of the Drenai, where men and women live in abject fear of the dark sorceress known as the Eternal....
But what if the soul of one such hero could be called back from the void, his bones housed again in flesh? An ancient prophecy foretold that Skilgannon would return in his people's darkest hour. To most, this was a foolish hope. But not so to Landis Kan.
Having found Skilgannon's ancient tomb, he gathers up the bones and peforms the mystic ritual. But the reborn hero is an enigma: a young man whose warrior skills are blunted and whose memories are fragmented. This Skilgannon is a man out of time, marooned in a world as strange to him as a dream, remote from all he knew and loved.
Or nearly all. Before bringing back Skilgannon, Landis Kan had experimented upon other bone fragments found in the hero's tomb. That ritual resulted in a surly giant who possessed astounding strength but no memories. To Kan, he is a dangerous failure. To Skilgannon, this giant represents their last hope.
As ageless evil threatens to drown the Drenai lands in blood, two legendary heroes will once again lead the way to freedom.

Great story, narration a little lax
i enjoyed the story, Gemmell writes some of the best fight scenes and captures so much in a few words. I love the Drenai series, and the characters are so memorable.
This is my first Sean Barrett story, there were a few times when the voices got confused but, in all honesty there wasn’t that much variation in the voices anyway. Still he tells the story well and i listened to the end.
in summary, enjoyable story with mediocre narration

Why did it have to end?
There will be no more drenai books. There will be more David Gemmell books. There will be no more immersive, trance, and in the mind movie experience .
That’s the only negative.

Superb book, great narrator
Would you listen to The Swords of Night and Day again? Why?
Will listen to David’s books over and over again. The best fictional fantasy. The narrator does a great job of bringing the book to life. A real gem.

EPIC ENDING TO AN EPIC SAGA
Jesus fucking christ what I story, seriously after this I don't think I'll ever be the same, when the Hero got stabbed & started bleeding out, I was almost about to switch of in disgust 🤢 however the book was too good to ever do that 💯 AMAZING.
