Much Fall of Blood (Heirs of Alexandria #3)

Another well crafted work that blends known history with mythology and told as a tale to stir the blood. We have the stolen prince, evil magic, magicians, spell-casters, legendary ‘vampires’, werewolves, Gypsies and a romance fit to balance a previous tragedy.

As I have previously mentioned, I don’t do book reports (last on was in 1970) so don’t expect one now. This is a very good book. I liked it enough to read it several times and purchase it twice. If you liked the previous works you will probably like this one. If this is the first book of the series you have read you owe it to yourself to go buy the previous works. It WILL be worth it.

I love the books featuring Erik and Manfred and the alternate history of Fourteenth century Europe (now Asia) that the four books of the Heirs of Alexandria blend Magic, the turn of fate that makes Mohammed a great Christian monk, and America settled by the Icelanders and Irish blending with the native cultures..

This book is a Stand Alone even if you haven’t read the others. It mixes the Golden Horde of Mongoles who swept into India and Russia (got as far as writing the Pope asking if he wanted help in our world) and Vlad Dracula, the man with our established heroes.

The more historical tidbits you know the more these books appeal.

Sword and sorcery in s different package

very good read not much to add from the other 2 reviews (yay for a much needed happy ending for a certain charater) and i will say that there is very minor mention of marco and really benito isnt in it much either but i should think they managed to open up enough story possibilities for even more books to come (i hope).
I do want to mention however, an annoyance with this book that is minor for me though might be worse for others,(though it got more annoying as there werent just a few) there are TONS of errors in the book as far as duplicate words, words in the wrong order, wrong word all together. nothing was so bad that you couldnt figure out what was supposed to be ment but it did at times impede the flow at its worst. I have never read a book that was that badly checked for errors. I do wonder if this is just an issue with the mass market edition?

Good series…

I admit to being biased. I Love the work of all three authors. This book Will stir you, scare you, and delight you. A fit addition to a fine series.
