Book Description
A hunt for raiding barbarians turns upon the hunters. But far worse is to come for the sleepy villages of northern Ursia and the soldiers who protect the villagers. The Dartague barbarians have had enough of the Ursians encroaching upon their mountainous borders, and the raids are but a feint to draw out soldiers while a much larger attack is in the works. His squad mates slain, Sergeant Guthrie Hackett finds himself alone in the winter wilderness on the border between his homeland and the nation of barbarians. He discovers the Dartague have a new leader, a wyrd woman who is behind the border assault. Worse yet for the sergeant, he has fallen under the attention of an ice witch, an inhuman creature with secret goals of her own. Seeking to survive, Hackett tries to make it back to his own countrymen, only to find there is relatively little safety for him anywhere in the northern regions.

The defeat of the barbaric Dartague looks imminent to the Ursians, but the Dartague still have the magic of their wyrd women behind the northern war. Once more Sergeant Guthrie Hackett is sent forth to hunt down those with magical powers, but his own sorcerous skills are becoming more and more difficult to keep a secret. Guthrie already suspects his two knightly companions know the truth about him. When the knights and the sergeant find a village supposedly housing the wyrd women, the battle against magic becomes not only directed outwardly at a barbaric foe, but one which boils within Guthrie himself.

Book Description
Who stands between Humanity and the Abyss? With one foot in the heroic past and one swinging fist in the future of fantastic storytelling, these 28 tales of swashbuckling adventure give answer. The heroes of these stories face insurmountable odds-and do not always prevail. Strength of muscle might fail; strength of will may falter before mankind's oldest enemy. Demons. Creatures of utter dark and fire's flare. Immortal princes of Hell who damn as well as destroy, who look upon humanity as playthings . . . and prey. Emerging from the shadows of the past; slithering from other dimensions; clawing their way out of the Pit; summoned by mischief or mistake. Clad in fair flesh or foul form, they are thirsty for blood, hungry for souls. Against this ancient evil men and women rise in challenge, heroes who meet the demonic host with cold, sharp steel. The next time a shadow by the windowsill issues a diabolical moan or whispers from the eaves, you'll wish you had one of these heroes along. Barring that, you'll want to have this book. So strap your armor tight, grasp your sword tighter-if such false hopes will comfort you-and prepare to enjoy worlds where terror and courage are two edges of the same blade.
