White Wolf: A Novel of Druss the Legend

About this book

White Wolf marks a return to the bestselling Drenai series and David Gemmells most popular hero of all Druss the Legend. Skilgannon the Damned had vanished from the pages of history. No-one knew where he had gone following the terrible triumph at Perapolis and the assasins sent by the Witch Queen could find no trace of his passing. Three years later a murderous mob gathers outside a monastery faced by a single unarmed priest. In a few terrifying seconds their world is changed for ever and word spreads across the lands of the East -- Skilgannon is back. Now he must travel across a perilous demon-haunted realm seeking a mysterious temple and the ageless goddess who rules it. With assassins on his trail and an army of murderous foes ahead the Damned sets off on a quest to bring the dead to life. But he does not travel alone. The man beside him is Druss the Legend. In this tale of love betrayal and treachery in a world torn by war White Wolf examines the nature of heroism and friendship and the narrow lines dividing good and evil.
