In Myre: Book 17, The Fall of Fenland, Mizar’s friends defend Polderhavn (the “Sand Castle”) against armies led by an old friend. Through skill, daring, and sacrifice, the Gyrlanders delay the Preussen victory until their wounded have put to sea. On the edge of death, Mizar rallies one last time.
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 17 of 18.
The world is all magical, and we can master it. We can be wizards, not just read about them.
