Why read it?
1 author picked Lord of a Shattered Land as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

His writing career was just taking off when he died far too young. It's a shame, because in this book, the first in a series, he took the cliched Sword and Sorcery motifs and made them exciting again. The book consists of short stories connecting Hanuvar, a hero who is more than just another barbarian swordsman.
