The Lance Thrower - Jack Whyte
A friend, who knows my taste in books put me on to Jack Whyte some time ago. I found a copy of The Skystone, read it, then went out and bought the rest of the series. The Lance Thrower continues with what I describe as a 'can't put down' book. Mr Whyte certainly knows how to capture one's attention and I love the way a jolly good yarn is woven around a little of the history of Britain. An awesome ...

The Eagles' Brood
Jack Whyte is a master at imparting historical data in gut-gripping fiction, even if you're not a fan of King Arthur. I loved this entire series, and have purchased it for several of my family members and friends. The whole series is an "I can't put it down" one. You'll be captivated!

Can't wait for part 3.
Once again Jack Whyte's skill as a story-teller are woven together with little-known historical facts and attention to detail to turn out a riveting tale of political intrigue and action in the Crusades. Those who have experienced war in the desert will be amazed at how many things stay the same throughout the centuries, including ideaologies and petty jealousies. Present-day Templars may find ...

The only believable "Arthur"
I read this way back in the early 70's. It was one of the first historical novels which impressed me, and to this day I can still see the images Sutcliff put into my mind. No other "Arthur" has come even close to being as real as her Artos the Bear, and his post-Roman Britain. Her writing style should appeal to young readers particularly, because it is sophisticated yet accessible. I don't know ...

Excellent Book
I'm a person who loves books about King Arthur and that period of time. This is an excellent book in my mind the thing that might give some people a problem is the sometimes racy scences. I read my first book by Jack Whyte called Knights of the Black and White and fell in love with that one and now I've fell in love with this series.

what a great series!
What a wonderful series! Finally a series about the fabled king arthur that takes the legend and makes it real - so real you can really believe it - steeped in real history, this author takes the legends we've all heard and makes them plausible, makes them breathe with a new life. I'm so impressed and I'll never think of "Camelot" again without thinking of Mr. Whyte's take on the situation. a ...

Jack Whyte is an INCREDIBLE author
For fantasy novel readers, Jack Whyte could be the greatest author ever. His Camulod series is remarkable. It is fiction with a touch of factual history. Completely captivating. I couldn't wait til the next one came out. I am giving them all to my nephew so that he can enjoy every one of them as much as I did! I pre-ordered his last 2 books and waiting for them was torture. These are ...

The Eagle: a great ending for a great series
I have always been a huge fan of the Merlyn - King Arthur mythology. I have read many series and books. I purchased the Whyte 9 volume set and spent the last month reading them. By far the Camulod series is my all time favorite. I never get choked up over fiction, but the final 3 words in "The Eagle" brought tears to my eyes. I have to admit that I will be Camulod withdrawal for awhile. I ...

Best Series Ever
This book lays the groundwork for the best series I have ever read. More fiction than history, these books are hard to put down. I read the first 7 in the series, and look forward to the rest. Not only does Jack Whyte entertain you, he gives you a new perspective of military occupation, chronic diseases, religious politics, love of one's home, and total desparation. The Skystone is not all ...

Review
Jack WHyte has done it again. Another adventures addition to the Camulod Chronicals. Whyte's style of writting has made every page interesting to read. With ongoing adventures for the young Arthur, a leave from the colony is a must. This story of Arthur keeps getting better with each book.

Robert Service: Under the Spell of the Yukon

IT IS DIFFICULT NOT TO LOVE THIS POET
Robert Service, if anyone, could be called "the grandfather of cowboy poets." This has been a popular genre over the past few years and much of the work done by these wonderful men and women can be traced back to Service's poems and style. Being called the "Bard of the Yukon" is certainly true, but sells this particular writer short. His works include so much more that just the delightful ...

This is the tenth book by Jack Whyte I have read, and he just keeps your interest high
I am a sucker for a well written historical novel. I have been reading Jack Whyte for years. First, 8 titles around the Arthurian legend, and now his 2 in the Knights Templar series ( one more to go!) which track the Crusaders. Whyte lives Kelowna and he does a first class job of research and tale telling. Plus the language! You just have to enjoy someone who uses the English language as he does. ...
