Book excerpt/synopsis : For twelve-year-old Eric Johnson, leaving Philadelphia to live with his Uncle Al and Aunt Cindy in the country, after the accident that took his parents lives, was hard enough. Yet tragedies past seem to pale in the wake of becoming involved in a war of mythic pro-portions between the Norse gods of the Aesir and the Frost Giants, competing for domination of Midgard (Earth) and Asgard (realm of the Aesir). Eric befriends the mighty Thor, his father Odin, and brother Loki, along with the industrious Rock Dwarves and the Valkyrie to save his uncle, his friends, and ultimately the planet and realms beyond. This is a classic adventure, seen through a young boy's eyes as he learns to accept responsibility and grow into a man. Adults and young readers alike will enjoy this truly heroic tale. "The action's divine, the plot mischievously intricate, and the characters of epic proportion (literally and figuratively). Tossed into the sea of chaos is a likable young hero who manages to survive the twists of fate." Virginia G. McMorrow Author, Mage Confusion "Superb! This can only be the beginning of the adventures of Eric and Thor. I can't wait to see what challenges they face next." P.M. Griffin Author, The STAR COMMANDOS Series
