Characters you wish Gemmell would write more about....

After reading heaps of David Gemmell's books I often get to the end of a book and wish I knew more about certain characters - also the epilogues lead you to ask sooo many more questions....

So who do you wish "had their own book" - a spin off series so to speak....

I wish I knew more about The 30, or more about The Dragon...

I know exactly what you mean or the WAR of the TWINS... he tends to give you tantalising hints and then goes off in another direction

I also wish he would write more about Feragol - from the Rigate series... who went and lived in another land over the sea... (which had parallels to USA in my mind.... the native indians.... i dont know my US history though, I'm a new zealander...)

There's so many I don't know where to start! Well, pretty much everyone in Knights of Dark Renown for starters... I just finished the book a while ago, and thought it was awesome! I'm going to have to go and re-read some books I think, and then come back and answer the question properly!

I agree with KoDR. I would have liked to see the back story of this turned into a book of how ollathair build up the knights and there adventures before they crossed the gate

war of the twins! definetly.
and the 30 in general

that would be good and tenaka khan, well a lot of them just about all of them, I've forgotten their name but in the rigante series book three at the start Jaims best friend dies who is the father of the one of the main charaters I would like to learn more about him, sorry can't think of the names and I've lent the book out so can't refer its the begining of Ravenheart the prologe damm it whats he called, but the story of his father anyway.

but I've just finished quest for lost hero's and a few ppl have mentioned the war of the twins so I guess thats the twins which are born at the end I do love his Drenai time line conecting it all together is well written

I'm a sucker for Skilgannon. Anything at all with him in is great IMO.

Re: Characters you wish Gemmell would write more about....

As people have already said, there are a lot of them.
But off the top of my head, I would like to read more about the Moidart, Angel, Bane and the other bloke in the Tenaka Khan book, the one who wore the scarf to cover his disfigured face, I can't think of his name.
