His style is very peculiar; he doesn’t hesitate to kill characters and is a master of the coup-de-théâtre. He bases his fantasy worlds on historical cultures, like the Jewish, ancient Rome, parts of Italy, the Vikings, etc.
Amongst his best (as per me 🙂 ) are The Lions of Al-Rassan, the Sarantine Mosaic (Sailing to Sarantium and The Lord of Emperors), as well as the Fionavar Tapestry (3 novels, I have an omnibus, so I don’t remember the titles).
I highly recommend his books.
Read my books! Volume 1 and 2 of A Dragon Medley are available now.
