Thousands of years after a war so terrible that it changed the very laws of nature, gods and giants once again stalk the earth and play their games with human lives...

A very intriguing read, and unique! Unlike any other fantasy author I've ever read.
First in the series of the "Sword" books. Each of the twelve swords forged by Vulcan has a special power...and a special weakness. Magic and fantasy, and a plot that contains many surprises.
