“David Gemmell tells a tale of very real adventure, the stuff of true epic fantasy.”—R. A. Salvatore, New York Times bestselling authorTwenty years have passed since Jon Shannow, the legendary Jerusalem Man, cracked open the gate of time and brought the Deacon and his followers into the world. Twenty years during which Shannow was missing and the Deacon ruled from Unity, intent on building a new promised land . . . in his own image.But the Deacon’s Jerusalem Riders spread their own wave of terror, unleashing bigotry and death, massacring unbelievers and mutants in the name of peace. Until a lone reader appeared, bent on avenging the dead.Wounded, his memory shattered, Shannow combated evil and injustice the only way he knew—head-on, both guns blazing. But would that be enough to stop the mysterious Deacon and his mad crusade? Even if Shannow succeeded, he’d still face the satanic hordes of the Hellborn and their bloodthirsty lord, Sarento, the living embodiment of the stone of power known as the Bloodstone!

"I regret it took me almost a week to finish this book. I really enjoyed it, but it seemed I only had time to read it a few pages at a time. It was an enjoyable story and one I would have loved to have been able to sit down and read a majority of it in one sitting.<br/><br/>I love the relationship between Vicky and Mab. It's evolving and changing, like real relationships do. They care about each other but they strive to learn more about each other than just the demon fighting stuff. They have come to mean more to each other more and more as they develop their relationship.<br/><br/>I will admit, I had hoped to see the last of Pyrce in the last book, but no luck. I guess that makes him a good bad guy if I wish him gone. There was some twists in this I didn't see coming and even one death I might actually be a little sad over (you'll know it when you read it). Overall, I'm happy I got time to finish this and hopefully I'll have better luck with finding time to sit down and read the next book."
