Guardians of The Flame 3-To Home And Ehvenor

A New Menace from Another World
Challenges the Guardians of the Flame

When it all began, it was just supposed to be a fantasy role-playing game. But a real wizard intervened, and seven college students were fighting for their lives in a world where magic was real.

Years have passed, and Jason Cullinane, son of one of those students, has taken up his mysteriously vanished fathers role when reports reach him of an attacking wolfpack of creatures who seem more than wolves.

Investigating, he and his comrades find a rift into another world from which evil beings are entering to kill and conquer. And the greatest danger to the band may come from one of their own who has seemingly turned traitor . . .

Two complete novels in the best-selling fantasy adventure series in one MegaBook.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR

Joel Rosenberg was born in Winnepeg, Manitoba, Canada and raised in North Dakota and Connecticut. His occupations have included driving a truck, caring for the institutionalized retarded, bookkeeping, gambling, motel desk-clerking, and passing himself off as a head chef.

His first sale was an op-ed piece favoring nuclear power, appearing in The New York Times. His Guardians of the Flame novels have been bestsellers, and given him a huge readership in fantasy. His science fiction novels, including Ties of Blood, Emile and the Dutchman, Not for Glory, and Hero have been equally popular and received critical acclaim. With his new novel, Paladins (Baen), he has begun a new heroic fantasy series.

He lives in Minneapolis with his wife and daughters.
