David Gemmell non delude!
(anche se probabilmente una valutazione più obbiettiva sarebbe di 3 stelle)

Lo tenevo da parte nel caso fossi incappata in una serie troppo lunga di flop e ho fatto bene: un caro vecchio Fantasy finalmente.
Magari un pò classico, forse semplice (o per meglio dire con varie tematiche trattate semplicisticamente) e con ambientazione rubata (Highland scozzesi) ma onesto, con personaggi imperfetti e sufficientemente nobili d'animo da farsi amare facilmente

TRAMA E FORSE SPOILER
una cacciatrice indomita, indipendente e autosufficiente con più sangue Reale nelle vene di quanto non sappia viene costretta dalle circostanze e dal suo stesso caratteraccio ad abbandonare egoismo, spacconate e spensieratezza per unificare e guidare gli Highlander contro gli Stranieri Invasori ( )
