5.0 out of 5 stars Long Live The Icemark, 2 Oct 2006
By M. Matthews (DONCASTER, South Yorkshire United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
A very worthy sequel to the Cry of the Icemark, I just couldn't put this book down. What makes a good book is when you get to the last chapter and you don't want it to finish so you take it slow and savour every word !
Stuart Hill though a new author I rate alongside Feist, GRRM Martin, Paolini and JV Jones.
I now hope there is a third book, please Mr Hill

4.0 out of 5 stars blade of fire, 1 Nov 2006
brillent! I found it alot better then the first book because it was slightly funnier making it more enjoyable though the events that happened were very simalar to the events of the first book so there was not much of a suprise when you got nearer the end. But i did like it. fantastic!

5.0 out of 5 stars Gripping read, 2 Oct 2007
By Mr. Jb Gartland "Josh" (UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Blade of Fire (Paperback)
Although i agree with the last statement that the plot is fairly similar to the prevous book, this installment builds upon the strong foundations laid by the first book by introducing more light humour, new warm as well as thoroughly despisable characters and more information about Hill's world.

True to form, Hill's battle scenes are spectacular, gripping events and Scipio Bellorum's cool arrogance is certain to get the even the most Rome-loving readers fired up. Much like the last book, there is a strong theme of solidarity, friendship and hopeless resistance; indeed what i enjoy most about the book are the darkest moments when all seems lost, even hope, but where the characters are prepared to die in glory and not to give up and face the inevitable.
