Another Brak the barbarian tale with the evil versus good sorcerers with Brak caught right in the middle. a pity doesn't have more of this series.
Every bit as entertaining as Conan. I can't wait for this to be recorded on audio book.
this is a wonderful beginning of a different kind of book by john jakes. his sweeping novels of historical periods are waaaaaay different from his series of Brak.i loved how i was drawn into the story. now i have to locate the other books and sit down to a good long read!
This in some early John Jakes, before he got big with the historical fiction and was doing the sci-fi/fantasy stuff. I've been a fan of the Character for nearly forty years and really enjoyed Zelazny's reading. His brak is just a step away from R.E. Howards classic fantasy characters. A good read and fun to listen to.
This was a gift for my brother,
but he was very happy with the condition it was in.
It sounds like it was exactly as described on website.
I was ecstatic to find this available for . These tales are as good as I remember them, classic sword and sorcery. These stories reflect the late sixties turn toward the slightly trippier fantasy very well, while still checking all the boxes for solid adventure fiction. Any discussion of S&S evokes comparisons to REH's Conan. Brak stands up very well. John Jakes is a master, a fact evidenced by his successes in mainstream fiction.
This is great fun for any fan of Robert E. Howard and the original Conan stories.
It is great to see these John Jakes' Brak novels available as digital editions - just don't understand why they didn't package them in the correct order. This volume contains the first and third Brak novels, along with some bonus material from the fifth novel. The next collection collects the 2nd and 4th novels along with more bonus material from the 5th....odd, no? Brak's adventures are good heroic fantasy in the shadow of Conan. The action moves along well, and the setting is full of "swords and sorcery". Brak himself is a tribute to Conan and is a wandering Barbarian along those same lines - but with a few differences. Beyond the cosmetic changes of Blonde hair in a long braid and a lion pelt loin cloth, Brak tends to suffer physically much more than Conan. He is often beaten and bloody almost to point of death in many of his adventures. As well, Brak tends to suffer a little more from fear of the supernatural than does our good Conan - though Brak does most often channel that fear into a berserker fury - and that can be off putting if you come to the novels looking for a barbarian who laughs his way through his battles. John Jakes is a good writer and obviously enjoys telling the tales of Brak, which makes these books well worth the read.
