| Re: Gemmell interview
For me, Legend felt like a glorified battle for Minas Tirith. There were many parallels between the settings. How much did Tolkien influence that first book?
People often accuse Gemmell of being formulaic. Does he see his work in this light?
The first two of the Rigante novels tied together nicely, and I felt he could have followed on the story of Bane quite easily. Why the 800 year gap? For me, this made the third book feel like the start of a new series. Was that the intention? |
