CAN A FREE CITY STAY FREE? THE ROGUE WIZARD Magnus D'Armand, the renegade son of Rod Gallowglass, Warlock of Gramarye, has set out to prove himself twice the hero and liberator his father ever was, and asks his sentient starship to find him a world in need of revolution. But on the lost colony planet of Petrach, he finds far more than he bargained for: a Renaissance-era world of booming commerce, vicious mercenaries, and Machiavellian political intrigue. THE CITY UNDER SIEGE The wealthy maritime free city of Pirogia's fledgling republic of merchantmen is about to be wiped off the map by an alliance of nobles determined to maintain aristocratic rule by any means necessary. Worse, the lords are backed by shadowy and powerful off-world organizations interfering with the planet for their own self-serving reasons. Even the Rogue Wizard will need a miracle to keep Pirogia alive and free against such odds!
Autorenporträt
Christopher Stasheff was a teacher, thespian, techie, and author of science fiction & fantasy novels. One of the pioneers of "science fantasy," his career spanned four decades, 44 novels (including translations into Bulgarian, Czech, German, Italian, Russian, and Japanese), 29 short stories, and seven 7 anthologies. His novels are famous for their humor (and bad puns), exploration of comparative political systems, and philosophical undertones. Chris always had difficulty distinguishing fantasy from reality and has tried to compensate by teaching college. When teaching proved too real, he gave it up in favor of writing full time. He tended to pre-script his life, but couldn't understand why other people never got their lines right. This caused a fair amount of misunderstanding with his wife and four children. He wrote novels because it's the only way he could be the director, the designer, and all the actors too.
