About this listen
David Gemmell was the UK's number one fantasy and historical novelist until his death in 2006. A regular Sunday Times best seller and international sensation, his legacy lives on through his novels, his influence on the genre and the David Gemmell Legend awards.
White Knight/Black Swan was David Gemmell's crime thriller debut, first published under a pseudonym in 1993 and long out of print and highly sought after by fans. Reedited and republished under his own name, it's a must-listen for fans of his heroic and powerful style.
In an action-filled story set in working-class London in the 1980s, Jardine is a bouncer and gang enforcer with a heart of gold. To protect a friend, he goes up against an Irishman demanding protection money - only to realise too late that they work for the same employer. One act of kindness will lead to murder, betrayal, blackmail and some long-hidden secrets....

So bloody good
This is one of the best narrated and most authentically authored book on Audible. It is true to its 1980s setting; uncomfortably so quite a lot of the time. And the characterisation and dialogue are are a lesson for all budding (and many published) writers.

Great
Great story-line and well narrated, really drew me in, so much so that I could not wait for the next event in the story trying to guess what was coming next.

Great book well narrated. Love his fantasy books. The first crime book of GD I have listened to such a shame we couldn’t have more.

What if Druss was born in Croydon?
Very Gemmell, despite the modern setting. Big guy hero does heroic stuff against all the Odds.

Great character
Bimbo is such a great character and it is a great pity that there won’t be any more books with him in it. I would like to see this story as a movie, in fact I would like to see any David Gemmell story turned into a film. The narration was very good with the individual characters being distinct which all you can hope for with an audiobook.

Wow
My first David Gemmell novel and I really was blown away. The main character was just SO lovable, he should not have been as he was portrayed as a villain, However, he was so honourable and such a delight I had tears in my eyes on so many occasions.
This is a brilliant story and read so well by Max Dowler. I am really so blown away by this book.
