The Coming of the Horseclans

A great novel for the Conan the barbarian style of fantacy writing. A post futuristic apocalypse world setting as a twist. Loved it and hope the publisher continues making new copy's of the original series.

Recently Mundania Press (www.mundaniapress.com) has reprinted the first book in the series and are presumably planning to reprint the whole series. I haven't had much trouble finding the other out-of-print books on various used book sites, currently collecting my second complete set for lending out to friends.

I'd say that the Horseclans novels are some of the best action fantasy ever written. I'd put the Comming of the Horseclans as the best of the series. I found the characters to be well developed, the pace to be fast, the plot both exciting and engaging, and finaly the action to be non-stop and realistic. If you can find it get it.

This author knows how to get you involved in the character's lives. He makes you feel as if you are there experiencing what the characters are experiencing. It is easy to tell that Mr. Adams did some outstanding research on weapons and armor. His descriptions are vivid, and his use of dialogue makes for a very believable setting. Only Anne McAffrey has been able to stir my emotions so well while reading a novel. Where are the rest of the books in the series?

The biggest error I made was giving away the complete collection. Who knew they'd be so darned difficult to replace!!! Fantastic series of post-apocalyptic survivors.
