As the Angostin battle hordes surge over the Southern Borders of the Highlands, the bandit, Jarek Mace, and his friend, the magicker and bard Owen Odell find themselves in a country in desperate need of heroes. The invaders have no respect for persons or places, stealing and laying waste everything in their path. Behind them evil sorcery is unleashed as a mad necromancer brings back to halflife the eons dead Vampyer Kings.

A fun short bit of heroic fantasy

Always strange going back to books you read a decade or more ago. It's great to remind yourself of why you enjoyed them so much, but it's difficult not to pick out their flaws when you've got so much more reading under your belt.

I definitely think more could have been done with some of the characters and some of the story could have done with being expanded on. Another hundred pages could have really helped.

Still, an enjoyable read and a fun wander down memory lane!
