Title: A tale of a different kind of hero
Review: As the previous reviewer mentioned this is the first of a series of novels by Rose Estes that are set in the Greyhawk Campaign setting. The series continues in "The Price of Power", "The Demon Hand", and "The Name of the Game". The series chronicles the adventures of the wolf nomad Mika-oba, who is the son the clan's shaman, and his wolf companion Tam-Tur. Mika is an extremely interesting character that kind of has the mentality of a sex-crazed hobbit. He wants to have the riches, women and glory, but doesn't like to work for it. His fate to takeover as the next shaman seems clear, even though he doesn't like the idea, but a raid on a passing caravan forever changes his life. The novel is fast paced and humorous and you'll love Mika's less than heroic attitude and his fun loving wolf. The ending is a strange one that will leave you wanting to know what will happen next. I recommend this novel to the lighthearted reader for a tale of a different kind of hero.
