Produktbeschreibung

"And those monsters saw not a young man with a sword but a scarred and screaming horror with the rising red doom of the sun at his back and a hellishly shrieking, flashing, living sword in his hands."

Skallagrim wakes in the middle of a fight for his life with only the vaguest idea of who he is. Facing an angry mob of murderous cutthroats, he watches helplessly while the love of his life is abducted before his eyes. Finally, with a crushing sense of despair, he realizes he's going to die without even knowing her name.

But he doesn't die.

To find the girl and take his revenge upon the fiend who took her, Skallagrim, wounded and exhausted, must endure a journey like no other. He'll face madmen, ghouls, tentacled horrors, and witches, both foul and fair, as he races toward a final showdown that will have readers on the edge of their seats.

An awe-inspiring tale of adventure, triumph, and tragedy, set in a brutal, unforgiving wilderness and packed with heart-stopping action, Skallagrim - In The Vales Of Pagarna marks the first installment of an outstanding new series.

"Stephen R. Babb ranks along with names like Stephen Lawhead or Jeffrey Overstreet. Excellence from beginning to end!" Grandfather Rock - WCWP New York.

"Filled with bloody action, fantastic settings, pithy dialogue, and unforgettable characters, Skallagrim is a bold success from beginning to end." Bradley J. Birzer - Author of J.R.R. Tolkien's Sanctifying Myth

"Babb describes the horrors of Skallagrim's nightmarish encounters vividly, every parry and thrust, every horrifying contact with monstrous flesh, every misstep into putrid slime. The dangers and unpleasantness of this barbarian landscape are made viscerally real, pulling the reader deeper and deeper into the tale." Bert Saraco - The Phantom Tollbooth

Autorenporträt

About The Author

First off, he prefers "Steve" to "Stephen." Now that that's out of the way...

He's best known as the bassist and co-writer for the prog-rock group Glass Hammer. A professional musician for most of his life, he started at the age of twelve as a church pianist. Since then, he has traveled the US and a handful of other countries in various bands.

He has a million stories of life on the road as a musician throughout the 80s, most of them downright hilarious, some of them utterly shocking. "It was the best of times; it was the worst of times," he will tell you. Don't get him started.

Fortunately for him, in 1990, he had the good sense to marry the right girl, come home, settle down and start a business. Since then, he has busied himself in the production of numerous albums for songwriters, the recording of audiobooks, and in the day-to-day tasks required to operate a recording studio while maintaining the persona of prog-rock star, prolific songwriter, and lyricist. This last bit, he enjoys to the fullest.

In 2005 he penned the epic poem, The Lay Of Lirazel, which was published in 2014. For that effort he was honored with The Imperishable Flame Award by The North East Tolkien Society.

Steve makes his home in Chattanooga, Tennessee, with his wife Julie and son Jon-Michael.
