Publisher Description
THE ROAD HOME
Bahzell Bahnakson of the Horse Stealer hradani never wanted to be a champion of the War God. Unfortunately, Tomandk had insisted. Even more unfortunately, Bahzell's own sense of responsibility hadn't let him say, "No."
Which was how he found himself in the Empire of the Axe, where even people who didn't actively hate hradani regarded them with suspicion and fear. Of course, that was only the start of his problems.
Next, there was the Order of Tomanak, many of whom were horrified by the notion that their deity had chosen a hradani as a champion . . . and intended to do something about it. And assuming he survived that, he had to go home-across three hundred leagues of bitter winter snow-to face a Dark God who threatened to destroy all hradani. Throw in the odd demon and brigand ambush, and add a powerful neighboring kingdom with no intention of letting Bahzell (or anyone else) save his people, and you have the makings of a really bad day.
But one thing Bahzell has learned: a champion of Tomanak does what needs doing. And the people in his way had better move.

Customer Reviews
Not enough story telling
There was far too much explanation of history and internal thoughts. I prefer to figure out what people are thinking and feeling by seeing their choices instead of from the author telling me. I prefer to read a flowing conversation instead of having it interrupted by a multi-page history lesson. Let me learn about the history from the interactions between people, not from exposition. (Is it called exposition? It’s been a long time since English 101) The only thing that kept me going was my love of the first book in the series (which also had these faults but to a lesser degree) and my love of the character and the world.
