Bahzell Bahnakson of the Horse Stealer hradani had never wanted to be
the champion of the War God. Unfortunately, the War God had insisted.
Which was how he had found himself among hostile strangers in the Empire
of the Axe--except that that was only the least of his problems.
For a start, there was the Order of Tomanak, who were horrified that
their deity had chosen a hradani as champion, and were resolved to
rectify the matter in a most unpleasant fashion. And if he survived
that, he had to get home somehow, in spite of the enemies determined to
stop him, to face the Dark God who had sworn to destroy all hradani. But
one thing Bahzell had learned: a champion of the War God Tomanak does
what needs to be done. And those who got in his way had better watch
out.
