The fourth book in Alastair’s Merlin Series, and should be read immediately after The Iron Tactician.
Leaving his previous hitch-hiker behind, Merlin then finds another to join him on his quest to find the ultimate weapon against the Huskers. Will they find it? Will Merlin finally get to use it? Will there be some ultimate act of betrayal?
You’ll have to read it yourself to find out.
Great ending though.
Sadly, for now at least, this is the fourth and final book in this short but very enjoyable tetralogy.
You’ll find this in the collection, Zima Blue and Other Stories.
