The Axe stumbles into a plot against his House and Confederation, organized by Adams's Evil League of Evil revanchist Hellene aristoi and a surprise villain or two. Women judged almost exclusively on their beauty and sexual availability? Justification for the slaughter of rebels' young children 42? Adams has got you covered. That's included in the purchase price. Actual homosexuality viewed invariably as a sign of pedophilia and degeneracy? Villains who weep and poop themselves when defeated ?

Despite his penchant for giant lumps of exposition, Adams can move a plot along when he needs to; the Horseclans novels aren't always entertaining but they read quickly. And I sometimes enjoy watching an author let his id so far off the leash as Adams does here. In a sense, these are as much horror novels as post-apocalyptic fantasies, with the part of the monster played by Adams's troubled psyche. Whether I keep reading the series depends on how much more hideous the shambling horror becomes. Presumably dad was still wearing his wedding dress during the inaugural shag.

Some clans have the ability to mindspeak to a few select animals, such as big cats which are more like panthers , and a select few have the power of immortality. Such as our main character, the Undying High Lord Milo! Milo starts up as a small clan leader, and eventually his clan starts growing bigger as the novels progress.

The series is a manly fantasy story with none of the silly dancing elves stuff. Every few pages, someone gets either killed or raped, and the good guys usually are responsible for both.

Bili the Axe

The first few books are pretty good. Nothing superb, but a fun, fast read if you like this kind of thing. It's more of a fantasy, but there is a Science Fiction basis - it's a post apocalyptic nuclear war world where a nomadic people are the good guys.

This is book 3. After about book 6 or 7, I got a little worn out with the series. This is in the middle of the series and worth reading. He's a memorable character introduced earlier on, so it was fun reading a book about him. This breaks the rule below. After about book 6 or 7, I got a little worn out with the series.
