In Myre: Book 2, The Cheerful Thief, Mizar seeks the help of Jenks the Toad, a notorious thief currently hanging in a cage at Gyrmouth Castle. Mizar’s allies execute a daring rescue—only to find an unexpected obstacle. When Mattie, Mizar’s daughter, is captured by Geoffrey and Glyss, Mizar invades the castle with the help of a two-headed green troll!
Myre is a medieval epic for scientists, engineers, martial artists, strong women, math nerds, linguists, and people who love history. The “magic” is all real within the limits of medieval alchemy, metallurgy, mathematics, and medicine.
Author Bruce Clayton is a hanshi (professor emeritus of martial arts), a scientist, survivalist, writer, and historian. The Chapter Notes share his insights into the background of the story and the 38-year process of writing it. This is volume 2 of 18.
The world is all magical, and we can master it. We can be wizards, not just read about them.
