High in the wooded, peaked mountains of Skeln, the woodsman, Dakeyras, and his beautiful daughter Miriel, live a life of harmonious solitude. Unbeknown to them, a group of grim-eyed, bloodthirsty warriors stalk the mountains. Men who have never known defeat, to whom revenge and torture are meat and drink. For ten thousand in gold they are eager to kill the woodsman.

Battle-hardened warriors all, they have no fear of this task - they should have. For Miriel is a woman of fire and iron, skilled with bow and blade and taught her skills by one of the deadliest killers of all time...

Her father, Dakeyras, better known as WAYLANDER THE SLAYER.

15 of 16 people found the following review helpful: Waylander is 'ard!!!, 8 Feb 2002 Reviewer: A reader Waylander is by far Gemmels best character. In the first book he is a ruthless assassin, who after unwittingly plunging his country into war, begins to doubt his morals. In the sequel he is a father and has settled down to lead a quiet life in the hills. But echoes of his past return to haunt him. This book sets a fast pace, incorperating a doomed journey, the defense of a homeland, and target that simple must be assassinated - no matter what the cost. The action is gripping and well timed, yet even if this book had not one action scene in it, it would still be a classic because of the superb cast of characters. Not only has Gemmel made several stunning characterisations, but he makes their personalities clash so you are always interested in what they have to say to one another. YOU CAN'T CALL YOURSELF A FANTASY LOVER UNTIL YOU INVEST IN A COPY OF THIS BOOK.

4 of 7 people found the following review helpful: Better than the first!!!!, 8 Jun 2001 Reviewer: A reader Waylander was the the best book I had ever read. That is until I read waylander 2. Brilliant book and a must read not only for Gemmel Fans but for all those who love fantasy reading. Couldn't put it down.

3 of 4 people found the following review helpful: Flawless, 13 Mar 2000 Reviewer: A reader A brilliant book. Everything Waylander 1 was and more. I nearly failed a Chemistry mock A-Level because I started reading this book 5 minutes before the exam, but it was worth it. Waylander has got to be one of the best written characters in the science fiction and fantasy genre.
