Highlander: The Original Novel of the Classic Motion Picture

If you are a Highlander movies fan, you must read this book!

This is the first novel concerning the Highlander, Connor MacLeod. (There are several concerning his successor, Duncan, in which Connor also appears.) We are introduced to the concept of The Game, in which a race of Immortals vie to be the remaining one in a battle of good, evil and "off with his head." If you are a fan of the Highlander TV show, I recommend reading this book and seeing the first movie -- it'll help you understand where Duncan comes from (and why Endgame was such an awesome movie).

An epic adventure that spands, four and a half centuries, focuses on Conor Macleod, an immortal, who is one of the few, who has made it to the time of the gathering, where the immorrtals, will battle to the last, for the prize. For Conor to win the prize, he must defeat his arch enemy Kurgen. THERE CAN BE,ONLY ONE.

Back in the mid-80's I saw "The Highlander" at my local movie house and fell in love with it. The book is well written and adds some extra girth to the story that the movie (even in its uncut version) did not include. The greatest appeal about Highlander is the concept of immortality and the implications of being able to live for an infinite period (as long as your head remains attached that is). The book will keep you riveted and any lover of fantasy or science fiction would appreciate this work.

I THOUGHT IT WAS TEN TIMES BETTER THAN THE MOVI
