From Publishers WeeklyBoth medievalists and sword-and-sorcery fans will enjoy this fantasy adventure, as Dickson skillfully inserts interesting facts about chivalric revels into a tale replete with dragons, trolls and knights in shining armor. Jim and Angie, the loving couple introduced in The Dragon and the George, are again in trouble with the Dark Powers-and to complicate matters, an orphaned infant has been dropped in their laps. Learning that the Dark Powers plan to tamper with History at the Earl of Somerset's upcoming, 12-day Christmas revels, the pair attend the celebrations. There, Jim, aided by the trusty English wolf Aargh, the faithful knight Brian Neville-Smythe, the magician Carolinus and a cowardly hobgoblin, must solve myriad problems so that the Phoenix at World's End will fly and Chance and History will retain their proper balance. Many of the plot twists are transparent, but the innovative use of an offbeat nativity scene offers a clever theatrical touch. Ultimately, it's Dickson's ability to wallow joyously in the conventions of the genre that makes this such a satisfying read. Copyright 1994 Reed Business Information, Inc. From Library JournalA yuletide visit to a neighboring earl becomes a personal challenge for Sir James the Dragon Knight as the alliance of dark forces arraigned against him threatens to force his return to his original dimension-that of 20th-century Earth-despite his growing attachment to this alternate medieval world he now calls home. The author's realistic portrayal of the less savory aspects of the Middle Ages provides a necessary counterpoint to his story's overall humor. Dickson's "Dragon Knight" series (e.g., The Dragon at War, LJ 11/15/92) has gained a large following, and this latest addition will be welcomed by most fantasy audiences.Copyright 1994 Reed Business Information, Inc.

A short story geared toward middle-grade readers. This light fantasy tale tells what happens when chronically bullied Tami inadvertently stumbles into Troll's March. Maybe the stories about the March's man-eating inhabitant are just parents' inventions meant to scare their children. Maybe... "Hhrraagh!" What was that?! Unfortunately, Tami is about to find out.The Root of the Trouble is Our Will. The struggle to surrender our will to God—to fight against self, selfishness, and self-preservation—is the fiercest battle that we will ever fight. The human will of Jesus was no different. It shrunk from God’s will as decidedly as ours. Without total submission to His Father, the fallen nature He inherited from Adam would have overcome Him as surely as it overcomes us. This book portrays the battle Jesus fought each day on earth. It paints a picture of his tortured steps, a blueprint of the journey that each one of us must take back to God’s will. How do we win this war against our souls? Only a closer look at Jesus can show us how, a closer look explored within these pages.

From Publishers WeeklyIn Finlay's meandering first novel, a heroic quest fantasy, loyal retainers spirit the human infant Claye away from his home, a castle under siege, but they die before they can bring him to safety. Adopted by a troll and renamed Maggot, Claye grows up among the trolls, who regard him as weak and puny but smart. Eventually realizing that he has to find his destiny among his own kind, Maggot first befriends humans in a clan culture, who involve him in their impossible war, fought against a far superior army. Next, he seeks to learn more about the marauders, a decadent city folk. Throughout, he keeps his eye on an elusive prize—Portia, a woman of the marauders, who falls in love with Maggot after a brief meeting. The narrative strives to be both funny and moving, but the humor tends to the slapstick and clashes with the tone of the rest of the book. Despite the emphasis on matriarchal societies, all we see are men doing warlike things (or trolls being spectacularly stupid). Still, Maggot's distance from humans and his role as the ultimate outsider ring true. Since Maggot never really completes his quest, a sequel seems in the offing. Copyright © Reed Business Information, a division of Reed Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved. FromYoung Claye is the infant son of Lord Gruethrist, smuggled out of the castle before it fell in one of those bloody feudal wars that are the plot springs of so many fantasy novels. Unfortunately, Claye's caretakers are killed, and he survives only through the kindness of a bereaved female troll and despite the loud objections of her husband--and a loud troll is very loud indeed. Growing up under the name Maggot, Claye learns a formidable array of survival skills from his neighbors, some of whom are creatures even weirder than trolls. It develops that he wants to win the hand of Lady Portia without using so many of his nonhuman skills that she will wonder what he really is and spurn him. Finlay's short stories have given him a reputation for originality, to which this novel should add reputations for characterization, for world building, and for satire that never goes over the edge into bad taste.
