The author of THE WIZARD IN SPITE OF HIMSELF takes off in a new series, and it looks as if it will be a lot of fun!

From back cover: THE MAKING OF A HERO Ages ago, Ohaern had toppled the fearsome Ulahane from the tyrant's throne. His reward had been the goddess Rahani--and the years had spun away blissfully.
Now humankind had fallen beneath the heel of Ulahane's son Bolenkar. Tenderhearted Rahani assigned her champion to save the world again, but the years had sapped Ohaern's mortal strength. He could guide the fight against Bolenkar, for his wealth of craft and wisdom remained intact. But a younger man must strike the killing blow.
Like a swordsmith seeking to craft a sword, Ohaern sought the raw material from which to shape a hero. He chose an outcast bully; a scoundrel, despicable and lazy---but one who might be shaped into something better. The fire in which this hero would be forged would cleanse the filth from his soul, leaving only that which was fine and sharp.
Whether he could topple a godling, only mortal combat would decide. . .
