Ian Silverstein returns to the magical realm of Tir Na Nog. The threat of war looms, disturbing the tenuous peace that exists between the world's ruling noble houses, and Ian must find a way to stop the seemingly inevitable conflict. For, it turns out, Ian may be the Peacekeeper of legend, chosen by the great god Odin himself.
This is a typical Joel Rosenberg book, filled with fresh takes on classical ideas (dwarves as Neanderthals!!), terrific characters (Arnie Selmo agan threatens to steal every scene he's in although Ian Silverstein shines through again) and a some of the best action scenes I've ever read.
Terrific book -- I want the next one now!

This is Rosenberg's best yet, and that is saying something. The characters and scenes seem to leap off the page and into my mind.Strongly recommended.
Wow!

This one blew me away. Rosenberg increasingly reminds me of Frank Capra: not only does the story have impact and scope, and not only are the major characters deftly drawn, but the minor characters shine like stars. I'll never forget Arnie Selmo or Dr. Sherve or Maggie Christianson.
