- 1. Introduction to this FAQ
-
- 1.1. Welcome
-
- Welcome to the Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) document for the
- Usenet newsgroup alt.books.david-gemmell. This document attempts to
- answer common or frequently asked questions, and provide pointers to
- further information about David, his books and his life.
-
- The FAQ tries to have a standard format. Each of the main sections
- (numbered 1. 2. etc.) has a brief introduction, and then contains a
- number of common questions and answers. Each question starts with Q
- and a number (Q1, Q3 etc.) to make them easier to search for.
-
- The author has tried to ensure the content of this FAQ is accurate,
- but sometimes mistakes are made - if you know of any information in
- this FAQ which is incorrect, please contact the author so it can be
- changed. However, please also remember, this is the FAQ for a
- discussion group - and discussion by its very nature can be ambiguous.
-
- This FAQ is in no way endorsed, supported or approved by David Gemmell
- or any of his publishers.
-
- This FAQ should be present in the alt.books.david-gemmell newsgroup,
- the alt.answers and news.answers newsgroups and also on the web at,
-
- http://www.gemmellmania.co.uk/content.php?article=20
-
- The FAQ is also available at the Internet FAQ Consortium website,
- along with some 3500 other FAQ's. You can find the site at,
-
- http://www.faqs.org
-
- and this specific FAQ at,

-
- This document is Copyright (c) 1999-2004 by Tony Evans, all rights
- reserved.
-
- This FAQ may be posted to any USENET newsgroup, on-line service, web
- site, or BBS as long as it is posted in its entirety and includes this
- copyright statement.
-
- This FAQ may not be distributed for financial gain.
-
- This FAQ may not be included in commercial collections or compilations
- without express permission from the author.
-
- Q1. Ok, slow down, what's Usenet?
-
- Rather than try to describe Usenet in my own terms, why not check out
- this web site, which contains lots of documentation and is essential
- reading for the newcomer to Usenet.
-
- http://www.faqs.org/usenet/index.html
-
- The information on that web site is also posted to the usenet groups
- news.answers and news.announce.newusers which are also recommended
- reading for new users to Usenet.
-
- Q2. Where can I find more information on Usenet and netiquette?
-
- Again, the above URL contains links to some very good documents, and
- the reader is urged to look at "A Primer on How to Work With the
- Usenet Community" on that site at least.
-
- ---------------------------------\\----------------------------------
-
- 2. The alt.books.david-gemmell newsgroup
-
- Q3. What can I find in alt.books.david-gemmell?
-
- The alt.books.david-gemmell newsgroup is a place for David's fans to
- hang out and chat. As a result, you'll find conversations about many
- different things, differences of opinion, questions, answers, thoughts
- and feelings. It's intended to be a social place.
-
- Q4. What should I post to alt.books.david-gemmell?
-
- Some newsgroups prefer you to keep your conversation entirely
- on-topic, and give a strict list of what that means. The
- alt.books.david-gemmell group is a place for David Gemmell fans to
- chat and mingle, and as such, almost anything of interest to the
- readers is on-topic and fine for posting. However, please use your
- common sense, and observe that the following will not be tolerated,
-
- Any binary/non-text posting of any sort. Keep binaries to the
- alt.binaries hierarchy. By all means, if you've got something
- relevant to show people, put it on the web and post a link in
- the group.
-
- Any HTML/non-plain text formatted posts. Usenet is a plain text
- environment. Many usenet readers do so using Unix systems and/or
- text only applications. If you post in HTML, many people will
- NOT be able to read your post. Don't do it. Do not post in both
- text and HTML and think this will be better, it isn't, it
- doubles the size of your post (at least) and just annoys people.
-
- Advertising, SPAM, chain-letters, make-money-quick schemes, etc.
- postings are not welcome. Keep them out.
-
- As long as you avoid these types of postings, your message will
- probably be on-topic and welcome in alt.books.david-gemmell.
-
- Q5. I can't find alt.books.david-gemmell on my news server, what do I
- do?
-
- You have several options,
-
- Request that your ISP adds the group. This is fairly easy, and
- can usually be achieved by mailing a relevant contact address at
- your ISP. This is the preferred option - since it increases the
- propagation of alt.books.david-gemmell and so everyone benefits!
-
- Try using a public access news server or a pay-for-use service.
-
- Use a web based usenet reader, such as www.deja.com or
- www.remarq.com - these solutions are imperfect since the web
- isn't a good forum for usenet, but they do work.
-

- Legend
- King Beyond the Gate
- Quest for Lost Heroes
- Winter Warriors
- The Swords of Night and Day
-
- Q11. What order should I read the Drenai books in?
-
- There are several schools of thought on this matter.
-
- Publication Order
-
- From Dustin Tucker (tearsong at u.washington.edu)
-
- "I would read them in order of publication because for me at
- least (and I haven't read legend of deathwalker or winter
- warriors), there are some things in Legend that are mentioned in
- Druss the Legend, and there's more history of the world in
- Legend than in Waylander, and so on. I find it easier to know
- what some of the traditions, nations, and history of the place
- is before reading about the place, and Legend gives a better
- idea of these facts than Waylander."
-
- From Dale R. (moonblossom at dodgenet.com)
-
- "This is not an easy question to answer. It depends on what you
- are trying to get out of what you are reading. I assume most
- people would prefer to read the stories in chronological
- order. I have a couple of issues about reading the saga this
- way. I preferred reading the stories in the order they were
- written. That way I get to see how the author improves and
- expands on his craft."
-
- Chronological Order
-
- From Sam (thurgood at mweb.co.za)
-
- "Personally, I read the series in more or less chronological
- order, starting with Waylander. After that, I recall reading the
- First Chronicles, Legend, King Beyond the Gate, Quest for Lost
- Heroes and Winter Warriors. I would personally recommend this, I
- feel that the series makes more sense this way - e.g. The first
- Earl of Bronze (Waylander) before it has already become an
- established position (Legend). The two exceptions that I found
- to this rule were The Legend of Deathwalker and Waylander II,
- since they both require substantial Drenai background, they
- would probably fit in best somewhere after Legend."
-
- Other
-
- From Grete (grete at tagman.demon.co.uk)
-
- "I find with any author that has ongoing series that you read
- them first in the order they come out in (because usually you
- are waiting with bated breath for the next one to appear) and
- then later on re-read them in chronological order. So.... I say
- both ways ;)"
-
- Q12. What order do the Sipstrassi books take place in?
-
- They take place in this order,
-
- Ghost King
- Last Sword of Power
- Wolf in Shadow
- The Last Guardian
- Bloodstone
-
- Q13. What is he currently working on?
-
- Current as of 06/01/2004
-
- David is about to publish The Swords of Night and Day (April 2004)
- and is working on, or about to start work on, a series of books
- based on Troy.
-
- Q14. Why are his US release so far behind his UK ones?
-
- David is a UK author, and initially, his books were not released in
- the US. When Del Rey (his current American publisher) did start
- publishing his work, they had some catching up to do.
-
- Del Rey released 'Hero in the Shadows' in the US at the same time as
- it was released in the UK. They are promising to do this for all his
- new work, while at the same time, releasing older titles as fast as
- they can.
-
- Q15. Did David write a book called "Lost Crown"?
-
- David wrote "Lost Crown" as a childrens novel with his daughter in
- 1986, when she was just seven. His publishers liked the idea and
- commissioned the work. Not knowing when it would be printed they gave
- it a fake ISBN and a 1999 publication date. This date was used for any
- book not yet written, but that had been commissioned. This was fine
- way back in 1986, but when 1999 actually arrived, a great number of
- novels started to "appear" in bibliographies and publication schedules
- on the 'net, although they may not have been published or even
- written.
-
- David finished "Lost Crown" and sent the manuscript to his publishers.
- They didn't like it, saying that they didn't think it had a "voice"
- for children. So it was shelved. When David asked for the manuscript
- back the following year, so that he could work on it, he was told it
- had been lost. As if that wasn't enough, it had been saved only on an
- Amstrad PCW disk that was corrupted. So the "Lost Crown" was well and
- truly lost.
-
- Q16. Why did David write "White Knight, Black Swan" under a different
- author name?
-
- From Grant Cadey (grant_cadey at hotmail.com)
-
- "One of the items touched upon when I talked to Gemmell in LA was the
- question of White Knight, Black Swan. It took me nearly two years to
- lay hands on a copy. I know what Clay means when he asks why Gemmell,
- being world famous, should have published it under another name. It
- didn't seem to make any sense.
-
- Gemmell told me that, as a kid, he used to be a big fan of Michael
- Moorcock. He used to wait with baited breath for the next Moorcock
- novel. One day he bought one, took it home and started reading it.
- Instead of fabulous sword and sorcery with characters like Elric and
- Dorian Hawkblood [?] there was a tale of a cross dressing transexual
- named Jerry somebody, and there wasnt a sword or a wizard in sight.
- Gemmell says he never forgot the disappointment, and, when he decided
- to write a thriller based on his experiences in East London, he didnt
- want any of his fantasy fans to suffer the same disappointment. So he
- wrote it under another name. By doing this the book only sold about a
- hundredth of what it would have sold, and is the only Gemmell novel
- now out of print.
-
- Its a strong story about a Rocky type figure in the London underworld,
- and it explores issues like loyalty, courage, and personal codes of
- honour. It is also a redemption piece with a truly uplifting
- ending. In fact its quintissential Gemmell without the fantasy. I dont
- know who has the rights to the book now, but I would think thered be
- enough of a market to justify reprinting it."
-

-
- 5. Other trivia
-
- Q17. Are there any maps for the Drenai books?
-
- The closest thing to an official map of the Drenai world at this
- stage, is that drawn by Eric Davis (darkness13_ at excite.com)
-
- Eric drew the map for his own interest, but it eventually came to
- David's attention, and is now considered as 'approved by the author'.
-
- [ url removed - web page no longer exists - anyone have a new URL?]
-
- Dale Rippke (moonblossom at dodgenet.com) has also drawn a Drenai map,
- which can be found here,
-
- http://www.dodgenet.com/~moonblossom/Dratlas.html
-
- Q18. Are there any timelines for any of the books?
-
- There are at present no official timelines for any of David's books,
- however, there is an excellent unofficial timeline for the Drenai
- books here,
-
- http://www.dodgenet.com/~moonblossom/legendof.htm
-
- Q19. Are the different worlds Gemmell writes about actually all the
- same?
-
- James Jones wrote this on one of the David Gemmell mailing lists,
-
- "Well the one time I was able to meet DG I broached the same subject
- with him about all of his books being written within the same
- world. He agreed that they were. Different times and lands but he said
- his plan was to have a complete link between all of his books before
- he died, but he doubted he would finish considering he has no idea how
- many books he wants to write. But they are all the same world."
-
- Q20. Is Druss related to Rek? How does Tenaka fit in?
-
- Dale Rippke writes,
-
- "Angel and Miriel's child was Druss's Great-grandfather (Bardan being
- Angel's grandson). This child eventually married a Nadir woman and
- together they traveled to Drenai. This info appeared in LEGEND OF
- DEATHWALKER and was confirmed by David Gemmell in the recent
- questionaire posted on this newsgroup. So apparently Druss is part
- Nadir!
-
- Regnak was descended from Senta and Miriel's son. This was foretold by
- Dardalion in a conversation with Kesa Khan in the novel IN THE REALM
- OF THE WOLF (WAYLANDER 2). We don't know how many generations removed
- Rek was from Senta; we do know that his father's name was Argas.
-
- So it appears that Druss and Rek are related by blood. I'm not sure as
- what exactly, but I don't think you could go wrong listing them as
- distant cousins.
-
- Tenaka Khan is the great-grandson of Rek, and the grandson of Rek's
- son, Orrin. Orrin's son, Hogun, married Shillat, the daughter of
- Jongir Khan (who is descended from Ulric) and they produced Tenaka
- Khan as their only child. I'm not so sure that you could make a strong
- case of Tenaka Khan being blood relation to Druss, although they are
- both descended from Miriel (and indirectly from Angel, via Senta). I
- would be more inclined to list Druss as Tenaka's ancestor."
