A Wizard in Midgard (Rogue Wizard, Number 6)
Tor hard cover
Sixth volume in the Rogue Wizard series from Stasheff, author of The Warlock in Spite of Himself
and The Star Stone series.
The exploits of Magnus Gallowglass, aka Gar Pike, this time bring him to a planet whose civilization is based
on Norse mythology. Through accidents and wars its population has become divided into Midgarders,
Jotunheim giants, and Niebelheim dwarves. Magnus deals with the latter two with his usual wit
and ingenuity, but the Midgarders prove to require a more political touch...

The Warlock in Spite of Himself (Warlock Series, Volume One)
Ace (reprint, trade paperback, 374 pages, $13 US/$19 CAN)
Publication date: September 1, 1998 (First Printing: 1969)
When Stasheff's classic The Warlock in Spite of Himself first appeared almost three decades ago,
few could have predicted that this unusual
novel -- one of the first to successfully mix SF and Fantasy -- would launch a series of over a dozen books, including
two spin-offs, Heirs of the Warlock and The Wandering Wizard. Now Ace presents a special collector's
edition, with cover art by Stephen Hickman and a new introduction by the author.
