Customer Reviews

Sword and Shackel Is my fav.

Personaly this is one of my favorite books. It's one of those books you can read and re-read again and agiain, without getting sick of it. The way Farris is writtin and the way Alanna portrays him is awsome. Then the differennce you see from Farris-to-Bantam is wonderful. If you like reading books that don't hold back and make the characters seem above everything, but sound realistic but also adds magic in with that then, this is a book for you. This also isn't one of those constant blood-bath books or romance all the time books or the main "character gets the girl everything turns out in the end" books. It also doesn't have a tragic end were you begin to wish you'd never wasted your time on it. No when you finish reading this book you will NOT regret reading it. I've said to much. Oh, well. Read it and see for yourself if you agree with me!!!

WOW!!!

This was an absolutely amazing book. It really felt like I was there. It was extremly well written. The author created round characters which made the story seem real. I think it was a very inspirational story and left me with good feeling when I was finnished. I highly recommend this book.

A Great Book

This book just grabbed me. I think that the most important part of a book is how the characters are portrayed and I think that Alanna did a better job than most of the other authors I have read. Though the book was shorter than I would have wanted I read every word and didn't stop until the book was finished. I found her writing to be like Ann Marston and Lynn Flewelling, two of some of my favorite authors. I recommend this book to people who likes living in the world that they are reading about and feeling the that characters they are real.

An exellent book

Shackle and Sword is one of the best fantasy books I have ever read. Alanna Morland has created a world with depth behond it's immediate story that I hope I will read more about in further books. The story itself has no great departures normal fantasy. It is exceptional only in the quality of the writing and characterisation. The only thing wrong with this book was that it ended.

Finished it in one sitting! Keep them coming!

Bantum is an appealing hero and his adventures are exciting and entertaining as he fights for his freedom and his maiden. The middle ages come alive before your eyes.
