Legend is the first book in the Drenai series. Written by the late David Gemmell, this is definitely one of the best heroic fantasy tale ever.

The mighty fortress, Dros Delnoch, stands between the raging hordes of the Nadir and the land of Drenai. The Drenai force are massively outnumbered. All hope appears to be lost…until the arrival of Drenai's greatest hero, Druss the Legend. His arrival boosts the morale of the Drenai troops while striking fear into the barbaric Nadir forces. However, Druss is no longer in his prime. Can the aging hero save Drenai from the clutches of evil once again?
