Synopsis

Waylander the Slayer, one of the Drenai’s most feared warriors and assassins, has become a hunted man. A fortune in gold has been placed on his head, but the threat to Waylander is only the beginning.

Alongside his daughter Miriel, a formidable warrior in her own right, Waylander becomes caught in a deadly struggle involving sorcerers, demons, soldiers, and shamans. When father and daughter are separated, each must confront enemies determined to destroy two of the Drenai world’s most dangerous fighters.

Fast-moving, violent, and filled with Gemmell’s trademark themes of courage, redemption, loyalty, and survival, In the Realm of the Wolf continues the story of one of his most memorable characters.

EugeneBookStore Summary

A strong addition to the EugeneBookStore fantasy section, particularly for readers collecting David Gemmell’s interconnected Drenai novels. In the Realm of the Wolf continues the story of Waylander, one of Gemmell’s best-known characters, and combines fast-paced combat with the morally complex heroes that made the author a favorite among classic heroic-fantasy readers.

This older Del Rey paperback edition also has attractive traditional fantasy artwork and works particularly well as part of a larger David Gemmell or Drenai collection.
