Roar (Kiernan)

Roar, Sean Kiernan, 1998
based on the TV series created by Sean Cassidy and Ron Koslow


Very enjoyable. A keeper. Based on the series pilot (which I didn't see -- I only saw 1 or 2 later episodes). The story starts with Longinus and the Crucifiction, jumps 400 years and shifts to Ireland and spans another 25 years. The story has solid characters multiple interwoven storylines that don't all end with someone dying. A little open-ended, but it was a series pilot, so that is to be expected.
Well-written, especially for an adaptation.
