Synopsis: From the back cover of the Baen Books first edition: Cormac Mac Art Warrior - ready to fight the forces of Hell and nightmare if they stand in his way. Renegade - A Celt leading a band of Viking reivers, their hands against all men. Pirate - Who would storm the towers of Atlantis for a friend - or a jest. Outcast - condemned to die if he returns home, having disagreed with his king over a point of honor. Cormac Mac Art, an Irishman, descended from Kull and Conan, carves a bloody track across the face of Arthur's Britain. At his side is Wulfhere the Skull-Splitter, a Dane as ready to turn his huge axe on demons as on humans. They stand back-to-back against the men, monarchs and monsters of an age dark with ancient evil. Cormac Mac Art, a wild fighter who soul is forged from the same cold steel as his relentless sword! Cormac Mac Art, a barbarian hero as only the pen of Robert E. Howard could draw him!
