Lord of the Isles

by David Drake


I liked how this book started. But it seemed like the main characters were going to go to the capital city and there would be intrigue, but they never made it. Instead it was just adventure with bizarre things happening. I'm much more a fan of people making decisions instead of being acted on by magic or weird creatures.
