The Scavengers by Mike Parker - Top Ten Swords & Giveaway


The ScavengersThe Scavengers
by Mike Parker
Paperback, 350 pages
Published November 8th 2012 by WordCrafts Press

Premise:

Tyrfingr.

Its appearing portends the end of the world...or the beginning of a new age. Some believe it to be a grimoire, a book of ancient evil with the power to divide the truth from lies, light from darkness, bone from marrow, the soul from the spirit. Some say it even has the power to raise the dead back to life. Others claim it to be the marvelous Sword of Light - the sword that could only be drawn from its resting place on the Corner Stone beneath the Dome of the Rock by the hand of the true king, who will himself return from the dead to deliver mankind at its darkest hour. 

One thing is sure - whoever holds Tyrfingr rules the world. Two men long for its power. Only one can pull it from the Stone.
This is an amazing novel. From the outset it is gripping and tense. I cannot imagine an America after such an apocalyptic event – this book tells me just that. If you like suspense, action, and thrills then this is for you. The best book I have read in years. – GP Taylor, #1 New York Times Best-Selling Author of Shadowmancer
Intriguing!!! I have always been curious about swords in general, never mind the one that wedged in a stone so no one could pull it out!!  When Wordcrafts Press asked if I'd be interested in this book, I could not say "no". The author has gone beyond my dreams, however, sharing his Top Ten favorite swords. *rubs hands gleefully*  Please welcome Mike Parker to Colorimetry!!
