Fantasy Saga

Nearly two decades ago, Mickey Zucker Reichert introduced fantasy readers to her greatest creation - the Renshai, a race of warriors who lived for battle and swordcraft, and who began training in the art of war from the moment their fingers could grasp a weapon. Set in a world enriched by Norse mythology, Mickey's first two trilogies about the Renshai - The Last of the Renshai and The Renshai Chronicles - captivated readers as they followed the adventurers of these legendary warriors who fought their way back from almost total extinction to claim a new homeland and find allies in a world where far too many still feared and despised them.

Flight of the Renshai continues the Renshai saga begun in the previous two trilogies. Opening eighteen years after The Children of Wrath ended, Flight of the Renshai focuses on the main characters from the second trilogy, as well as their now-grown children. At the center of the story are the three sons of Kevral Tainharsdatter: Saviar Ra-khirsson, Subikahn Taesson, and Calistin Ra-khirsson.

Béarn and its allies, including the Renshai, are faced with mysterious pirates, the vanguard of an army sent from a continent across the sea. The "pirates" are becoming bolder, and have now attacked one of Béarn's flagships, a vessel on which young Prince Arturo was sailing with his Renshai guards. With all hands presumed lost, the threat of these marauders can no longer be ignored.

And even as King Griff grieves over the loss of the prince, Béarn must devise a strategy against this deadly enemy. Though Griff's two greatest weapons are the Kinghts of Erythane and the Renshai warriors with who Béarn is allied, prejudice against the Renshai is growing rapidly, fueled by their centuries-old enemies in the Northlands. The Northmen have convinced a faction in Erythane that the Renshai lands were stolen from them. As tensions escalate, the future of the Renshai hinges on a trial by combat. And though it appears that the Northmen have cheated, there is no way to prove it. Under the terms agreed to, King Griff is reluctantly forced to banish the Renshai from the Westlands.

Shunned by the Westerners and hunted by the Northmen, the Renshai will face many trials, while Saviar, Subikahn, and Calistin must each take his own stand in a world where there are no longer any safe havens for their people. Yet not only the Renshai are in dire straits. Without their aid, Béarn may well fall to the "pirate" army which is fast approaching its shores...
