Seekers and the Sword

The Vidar Saga #2

by Michael Jan Friedman

Created in the dark dwarvin caverns by a mast smith, with mystic runes carved in its gleaming hilt and spells of blood to bind it with power - this was the legendary Sword of Frey, the magical weapon that brought victory to its wielder.

Now two mighty gods seek the sword - Ygg the Destroyer, who lings to obliterate Asgard and Earth, and Vidar, the bastard son of Odin, trying to save both worlds from Ygg's mad campaign. Through the Gates between the Worlds, with the forces of Aesir, mortals, elves, and giants behind him, he must race against time and the deadly pawns of a crazed god - to prevent a second Twilight of the Gods.
