A fantasy series that appears to be based upon a Persian legend.

In general, this is a story of how a young king, Arislan, attempts to retake his kingdom of Palse back from Luistanian invaders. The cast includes:

Arislan - The crowned prince of Palse who is leading the revolt to take back his kingdom.
Daryoon - A close friend and adviser to Arislan, as well as a great swordsman.
Narsus - A former advisor to the court in Ekubatana, the capital of Palse until he fell into disfavor. Now acts as an advisor to Arislan.
Pharangese - a holy warrior. She is vowed to protect Arislan and fight with him.

Heroic Legend has all the required elements of a proper fantasy story, including magic, sword fights, traitors, and general purpose all around nasty dudes.

In general, I like the The Heroic Legend of Arislan and I believe that most fans of fantasy would also enjoy it.
