Templars and Zombies. The Knight's Templar of the Rosy Cross versus the Black Yew of the Undead. Plenty of close in combat the way they did it in the good ol' days. A nice unique variation on the zombie story.

Really well written. I found this book started out great and kind of dragged in the second half. To be fair, I kind of figured out what Martin was going to do a little too early so I was like: just get on with it. I'm also not a great military buff, so all the battle detail was kind of wasted on me, although they smacked of plenty of realism.

I would recommend to horror and particularly zombie fans or someone looking for more literary horror fare.

Cool cover too.… (més)

For the most part I enjoyed Toothless. Set in the middle ages, Toothless is an alternative history novel where demons, known as the Yew, are taking over humanity. Toothless was a former Templar Knight named Martin, who died at the hands of the Yew. At first he was working for them, killing people like a scythe going through wheat. But eventually after meeting a woman with mystical abilities, he has a change of heart and helps the Templars fight against the Yew. Although I enjoyed Toothless, parts of it were hard to get through. For one thing, Toothless is incapable of speaking, making for some awkward reading. Also, the novel seemed a little rough around the edges. All the same, I found it enjoyable.
