The action, however, is very very good. The book is fast-paced and land and titles pass through hands rapidly as various characters die or lose battles. The book also contains a lot of medieval politics and treachery, which livened things up and made it more than a book full of battles. I enjoyed reading about the medieval preparations for war and the way that battles were fought. The book even includes a melee tournament and underscores the danger of that ''game''.
Overall, ''Warriors'' is not a brilliant book. The characters suffer from lack of depth and emotional intensity. They can fight well, both verbally with one another and on the battlefield, but they have little else to them. The battle scenes, however, are very good, as is the political manuevering manouevering throughout the book. I would have to recommend this to someone who enjoys action but doesn't feel the desire to be at all moved by a book.
Thanks to the publisher for sending a copy to the Book Bag.
For another story full of warfare, try [[The Forgotten Legion by Ben Kane]].
