Bard II: The Return of Felimid Mac Fal!

By Keith John Taylor and Keith Taylor

Book Overview

THE RETURN OF FELIMID MAC FAL

This is the tale of one Felimid mac Fal: vagabond, roustabout, poet-and magician For Felimid is a poet of the old Irish blood: a fully trained bard of Erin. And his is the sort of poetry that can sing shy dryads out of their trees and dragons into slumber and juggle the fixed round of the seasons as a jester juggles knives.

A man who saw the bard's pretty face and the harp on his back might think him a simple minstrel. That mistake could cost him his life.

But a woman who saw the bard's pretty face might have other ideas...particularly if she is Gudrun Blackhair, the most notorious pirate on the northern sea

"For lovers of magic, history, and/or swashbuckling adventure, Bard] is an excellent novel about an earthy and genuinely likeable Irish hero."-Science Fiction Review

Customer Reviews

Terrific Series.......

Great characters and a quick lively story line keeps the adventure moving in this tale of a magical Europe.Legendary characters and historical references intermingle with an abandon that defies factual accuracy. But who cares!? It's a great story. Sword and sorcery lovers in particular will find it a great read.

Best of the series

I've read 3 of Keith Taylor's Bard books, and I felt this one was the best. It deals with Felimid's meeting the Norse pirate Gudrun Blackhair, and their travels. Part of it seemed to be short stories that had been novelized, but it still reads well. Plenty of adventure, humour, and a strong female character make this a very enjoyable book.
