But what does he do when all the fun is over? When an annoyingly eager young man by the name of Eliott, his Elvish guardian, and a bard-for-hire magically drop into the life of former hero Jordan the Red, the aged warrior wants nothing to do with them. He's had enough of battling the world. But Eliott wants an adventure with the legendary, sword-swinging soldier of fortune-and this hero is about to be forced out of retirement.

Publishers Weekly	Review Rating: 40
the reader is left with a cartoony world and a cast of two-dimensional characters in what comes off as a poor man's Terry Pratchett. Full Review Link
