Customer Reviews

Interesting Read ... leaving more questions than answers.

I followed the exploits of Montrovant through numerous decades and three books to see this trilogy through to its conclusion. I am also reading the follow-up trilogy set in the modern nights, called the Trilogy of the Blood Curse - which chronologically precedes the serial set of Clan Novels (13 total). I am intrigued by the introduction of new characters and the way the quest ends for our protagonist. I do not know if it was something worked out between Gherbod Fleming and David Niall Wilson, but it seems like certain things were purposely left unexplained, as well as certain other things left "open" .... (I'll let you read the book judge for yourself)One thing I liked was the way David Niall Wilson presented the relationships between certain key character pairings/groupings. Examples include Montrovant and his childe, LeDuc and an aspirant to the Bitter Ash, called Abraham and his childe of necessity - Fleurette. In a novel populated in majority by emotionless, cold-hearted corpses ... you will come across moments of recognizable "human" sentiment expressed by these blood-drinking predators.Overall, I felt it was a worthwhile read. The historical setting contributed a lot to the flavour of the prose. The inherent mystery surrounding the Holy Grail and other mystical artifacts provide much for the reader to digest. The brotherhood of knights founded by Kli Kodesh is also an enigma worth further exploration (provided there are authors up to the task). What happens to the Knights of the Bitter Ash? In a world of darkness, it is not always easy to determine who is "good" and who is "evil". There are many shades of gray. If you are interested in the Grail, the Inquisition, the Dark Ages, or a simply well written story - get this book. (I'd recommend you get the previous 2 books in the trilogy as well!)

Nail biting page turner, deliciously concluded!!!

D. Wilson - simply one of the best dark fantasy writers of our times! I can't get enough of his trilogies - more please!!! If you want excellent, page turning dark adventure, he's the man!
