Summary |
Conner Macleod is a Scot who should have died in 1536. But he belongs to a rare race of immortals that can only be killed when beheaded with a sword. Their destiny is to duel through history until the Gathering, when the remaining few will battle for supremacy. Macleod lives in peace for four centuries. Then his old enemy, the evil Kurgan, arrives to challenge him. With modern New York as their arena, the two time-scarred swordsmen square off. Only one can survive. And he will wield more power than any man ever dreamed existed. |
