Waylander is superb, it will never hold the place in my heart that legend does, and will never be reread as much, but damn its a good read.
I think Ive said before the only Gemmell books I didnt really enjoy were the Jon Shannow novels, and the 2 Alexander the greatish novels that somehow link to them.
But Drenai?
Read them all man!
Agree with all of that.
The first Alexander one was fine, the second much more meh for me.
Waylander, Legend of Deathwalker, Winter Warriors and the pair of White Wolf and Swords of Night and Day (moreso the first, but it's worth reading both) are all highlights for me (outside of Legend). -

I reread Winter Warriors recently (which was my first Drenai book, and as such holds its own place in my heart) - so I didn't think I'd resist for too long

In Topic: What is the first movie you ever saw in a movie theatre?

Cause, on 10 March 2026 - 03:53 PM, said:I know it cant be the first movie I saw in a cinema, but the earliest movie I can remember going to was the lIon King in 1994. I would have been 7. I think I remember it becuase it was a good movie, but also I think my parents took my sister and me but left us in the cinema to watch it alone. I remember they bought me a coke, popcorn and a bunch sweets. They teased me after it must have been good because I didnt eat any of the sweets.
Similar here - I seem to recall being told that Aladdin in the cinema (possibly the year before Lion King, so 1993 and I'd have been 3 or 4) was my Mum's first try at "can she sit still for a full film". Apparently I was absolutely mesmerised ten minutes in and barely moved for the whole thing. Still a nostalgic favourite to this day. -

Wizard's Guide to Defensive Baking is in my wishlist thing (it's a link Waterstones website let you keep). I have it because Mr NAB kept buying me books as a surprise only to find out I'd already bought them before he could give them to me, so now books go on that list and I'm not allowed to buy them
