Movie Rating

2010 post apocalyptic action/adventure, which is about as close as I've ever come to seeing the author David Gemmell's character of Jon Shannow (aka The Jerusalem Man) on screen!

Let's see the similarities:

Post apocalyptic? Check.
Essentially a Western? Check.
Lone survivor wandering the plains/roads? Check.
Said survivor looking for redemption? Check.
Whilst carrying/quoting from a Bible? Check.
Gunfights and bar-room brawls? Check.

Yes, there are differences - including a very big reveal at the end - but, all in all, there are a heck of a lot of similarities ...

Extremely powerful poetry

Contains spoilers, click to show

This was an extremely powerful poetry book to read as a woman. It basically follows a womans struggle growing up falling in love and being a survivor. Warning some of the poetry might bring on extreme emotion.
