''The King Beyond The Gate'' is a fantasy novel by David Gemmell. It was published in 1985. It was the second book published by Gemmell, after ''Legend'', published a year earlier. The book is set in the same fictional world as ''Legend'', that of the Drenai, but is not a sequel in the usual sense as the events of the two books take place around a century apart. Thus the main protagonists of ''Legend'' are long since dead and play little part in ''The King Beyond the Gate'', other than passing mentions. This set a precedent for the entire Drenai series, in which very few characters appear in more than one novel, the gaps between novels sometimes running to centuries, giving a more epic, historical flavour to the series. ==Synopsis== ''The King Beyond the Gate'' takes place a century after ''Legend'' takes place. The Drenai are under the rule of Ceska, a usurper of the throne who over time has become a mad emperor. Ceska rules with an iron fist, with the Joinings and the Dark Templars as his tools of terror. The Joinings are horrifying werebeasts, made by merging man and animal, and the Dark Templars are priests of darkness, with power beyond compare. Thus it falls to one man to overthrow the tyrant--- Tenaka Khan.
