Publisher's Summary
High in the wooded, peaked mountains of Skeln, the woodsman, Dakeyras, and his beautiful daughter, Miriel, live a life of harmonious solitude.
Unbeknown to them, a group of grim-eyed, bloodthirsty warriors stalk the mountains. Men who have never known defeat, to whom revenge and torture are meat and drink. For 10,000 in gold they are eager to kill the woodsman.
Battle-hardened warriors all, they have no fear of this task - but they should have. For Miriel is a woman of fire and iron, skilled with bow and blade and taught her skills by one of the deadliest killers of all time: her father, Dakeyras, better known as Waylander the Slayer.

Great Adventure
At the time of his writing, David Gemmell was pushing the boundaries of the fantasy genre. Not only did he create great characters and story arcs, but he always invested a genuine human warmth and a feeling of hope into these stories. His heroes become archetypes in the battle of good vs evil, and he draws on the humanity of these heroes to differentiate the good from the bad. I have great admiration for his writings.
I have always felt that this is one of Gemmells finest. His character archetypes and story telling really come together in this story. In my opinion Waylander II is a superior story to the the first book and it has always been one of my 4 favourite Gemmell novels. Legend, The Legend of Deathwalker, Waylander II & Morningstar.
