ISBN	0330415468

This book caught my eye purely based on the name of the author -- I grew up loving the movie "Flight of Dragons," and not only did Peter Dickinson write the book that movie is based on, but the filmmakers named the main character in his honor. A curious reason to pick up a book, perhaps, but it at least caught...

Author	Thomas Harlan
ISBN	0812590104

If someone were to ask what this reader's thoughts are on Thomas Harlan's second book in the Oath of Empire series, off the top of my head I would say that it is mighty descriptive. Not a slight detail is overlooked on anything written about the beard on Mohammed's face, the hair on Maxian's head, the legionary...

Okay, this book is either one star, or five stars. I've averaged it out to four because I enjoyed it, but you gotta be looking for this kind of book. This is number two of a series of books based on the Death Dealer painting by Frank Frazetta, which is an iconic painting of a big guy with an axe that was embraced...
