Another Fine One in the Series

This is the third in the series, and it continues to develop the charactors of Dhulyn and Parno, the Mercenary Brothers, Partnered "in Battle and in Death." A rousing good read, but the plot is a bit predictable. The characters I absolutely enjoy.

exciting high seas adventures and more

In Lesonika, Partners Dhulyn Wolfshead and Parno Lionsmane of the Mercenary Guild learn they are accused of kidnapping and murder. They return to the Tarkin of Hellik's Court to prove their innocence. To achieve their objective, they must investigate the homicide and determine who the real killer is. Dhulyn and Parno begin the probe, but are disrupted by something more perilous than a murder accusation. Long Ocean Nomads have abducted some friends at sea. Loyal to a fault, the duet set off on the rescue although Dhulyn has fears because she has had visions that Parno will die at sea so she fears this mission is doomed. The latest Dhulyn-Parno escapades (see THE SLEEPING GOD and THE SOLDIER KING) are exciting high seas adventures with three major detours in the fast-paced story line. First they start investigating the murder accusation, but switch to a watery rescue before switching again to a strange land mission. Fans of the saga will relish their latest thriller summed up nicely by Parno when referring to the mercenary Guild says "What kind of problems can they give us? What could be worse than what we been through"? With this pair anything can happen to the delight of readers. Harriet Klausner
