The Old Ways by David Dalglish
Once again this book takes off right were Clash of Faiths left off. The two Paladins now on the same side and working towards the same goal. However while hiding out in a shack there is a bounty put out on the former Dark Paladin's life because of what had happened in Durham (town from Night of Wolves). This is bothersome for them as they are trying to keep a low profile. When the leader of the Bandits tries to capture the Dark Paladin it causes both Paladins to leave the camp.
Now that the Paladins are now separated again. One goes to Blood Tower to try and clear his name. The other takes off towards a good leader in his hope to help him overthrow a tyrant.
Blood Tower has been taken over by Dark Paladins and their sect. With the help of a ancient spell the young priest has taken on a path no longer followed by his people. It's up to a small amount of people to overthrow this priest and restore order to the tower.
After running to a Dark Priest and being set free to live out his days. He has no option but to head to the castle and help the older brother overthrow the tyrant. While defending the castle the paladin lives still the remaining forces are in retreat from the slaughter. When the Dark Priest makes it to the battle field, he kills the rebel leaders sister, the White Paladins only love.
This book is by far the better of the three. I really like how he brings all three books together and does not let a moment go by when our paladins are fighting, running, or morning. The end was a great surprise to me at least and I will be reading the next book of this series when he completes it.
David Dalglish has become one of my favorite authors. I'm reading other story lines by him as well. I hope they are all as good as this series is.
