A Wizard in Midguard by Christopher Stasheff
On a planet modeled after the Norse interpretation of Earth, the Warlock's son Gar Pike and a young girl he saves may not be able to bring together three races who have hated one another since the beginning of time. Reprint.Christopher Stasheff was a science fiction and fantasy novelist, as well as a teacher, actor, and technician. His career spanned four decades, with 44 novels (including translations into Czech, German, Italian, Russian, and Japanese), 29 short tales, and seven anthologies under his belt. His books are known for their wit (and poor puns), comparative political analysis, and philosophical undertones. He's always struggled to tell the difference between dream and reality, and he's tried to compensate by teaching college. He gave up teaching when it became too real for him, preferring to write full-time instead.
He has a habit of scripting his life, but he can't figure out why other people can't seem to get their lines straight. With his wife and four children, this produces a lot of misunderstanding. He writes novels because it's the only way he can direct, design, and cast all of the actors. Chris died of Parkinson's Disease in 2018.
His kind and kind attitude, eagerness to guide and advise anybody who asked, and sharp sense of humor will be cherished by his friends, family, admirers, and students. His horrible jokes, on the other hand, will be forgotten as quickly as possible.
