I really enjoyed the entire Kern series. The story is compelling and moves along at a great pace. There are very few slow moments in any of the books. If you have read any previous Conan books this is a little different. It follows the same principals of strength and honor, and combat as a way of live. I enjoyed the internal turmoil of Kern being an outcast in his own tribe.The lead character is not Conan, but Kern. He has the same traits as a young Conan though, and lives while Conan is King.
The epic battle sequences are believable and very well described. Some of them very graphically.
Good fun read.

Age of Conan Songs of Victory Legends of Kern Volume IIl Loren Coleman 9780441013104 Books Reviews
Conan, the Cimmerian who became `king of another realm' was a legend in his own time. However, there were other warriors of Cimmeria who were as brave and strong as Conan. They too did their best to keep their land safe from the Vinir and their masters the Ymirish who came from the North to conquer and settle the lands. They are led by the giant Grimnir, the son of the god Ymir who is invulnerable in battle. Only Kern Wolf-Eye, an outcast from the clan, ever hurt him and the giant wants his revenge.
While the Vinir and Ymirish are using various techniques to get the clans fighting among themselves, Kern is traveling the breadth and width of Cimmeria hoping to unite the clans against a common enemy. It is when Kern exposes one of the most powerful clan chiefs as a shapeshifting ally of the Ymirish do the clans put aside their differences to fight as one against the enemy. In the end it is Kern who will face off against Grimnir with the winner of their battle deciding the fate of Cimmeria for years to come.
The protagonist, who looks like the Ymirish with their soldier eyes and inability to stay warm, doesn't let the fact that he looks like the enemy stop him from going to battle against them even as his own clan fears him and casts him out. There is plenty of action in this swords and sorcery tale but the true magic of this story lies in one man's courage to go against his heritage and fight to keep Cimmeria free even if it means his death.

The 3rd book of the Legend of Kern trilogy was pretty good.
Not fantastic, nor awesome in scope, it still was a decent enough adventure read. The 1st novel is still the best.
The grammar and Coleman's style of writing can be sometimes downright tiresome to read. It reads very awkward and stilted, making the flow feel bogged down at times.
Overall, the final battle scene was decent. I would have liked to've read a more truly spectacualr battle scene, especially between Kern and the mighty Grimner. But it was much too fast, making Kern slay both Lodur and Grimner in such short time...I felt a bit cheated.
I also would've liked to have read about more of the Wolf Clan being killed off. It would have come off as more desperate that way. Instead, very few die. I was more expecting very few survivors after such a titanic battle sequence.
Also, the love triangle angle that Coleman worked up to in these 3 volumes - just fades away. Never resolving itself, one way or another. Didn't care much for that. (Mayhap that means Coleman has plans for future Kern novels...?)
Still, despite my many gripes, Coleman still dishes out a pretty decent fantasy novel, full of action and adventure.
A fitting end to the saga, a huge battle against substantial odds. The interesting thing about the series is that it lives within the Cimmerian world and although Conan was from that region most of the novels were set elsewhere and only his reflections and point of view gave us a glimpse of that world. Now we have a living, breaching Cimmeria with chieftains, factions, and terrible cunning enemies. It brings the whole Conan universe alike and gave us another very interesting take on that world.
Great fantasy ending to fun fantasy series.
I hope to see more of Kern & his wolves
in the future. Why end it here?
I really enjoyed this series.... The only thing I would change is the use of the word nay.otherwise was a very enjoyable read.
Excellent story. Well written. Can't wait for the 4th installment.
Excellent
