"Outlaw"

What I thought of this novel can best be expressed with a question. When will I be able to buy "Holy Warrior" without having to catch a plane to London? I have been waiting a long time.

Fantasic read!

This is one of the most interesting books that I have read in a long time. It is packed with action, the characters have depth and the images and places portrayed in the book are vibrant and packed with life. In short, Angus Donald does an excellent job of re-creating what life must have been like in England over a thousand years ago. I literally could not put this book down - it's an excellent read!

Absolute thrill-ride!

A friend of mine gave me this book to read, and once I picked it up, I couldn't put it down! It is an intelligent, well written, action-packed piece of historical fiction that depicts a time when the church ruled the land, and the man most skilled with the blade could obtain nearly anything he wanted. On the cover of this book there is a sticker that states "As good as Conn Iggulden or your money back." Well, I believe Angus Donald is BETTER than Conn Iggulden - this book is excellent.

excellent

This is a 'dont put down until your finished' book. I enjoy Bernard Cornwall and this book is in the same league. Well written and researched. Definetly worth a read. In fact I've kept my copy to remind me to buy the sequel when it comes out next year!
