Charles M. Ryan built an incredible pedigree in fantasy and speculative worlds over his two decades in the games industry. During that time he designed, wrote, and illustrated card, miniature, and roleplaying games, from hit brands such as Dungeons & Dragons and Star Wars down to niche indie hits such as Millennium's End and Psychosis. He also spent some time on the business side, running the gamut from operating his own independent publishing house to serving as Brand Manager for the grandfather of hobby and computer gaming, Dungeons & Dragons. His exploits have taken him from Virginia to Los Angeles to Seattle to southern England, but he now resides in the Kansas City area with his lovely wife, two awesome kids, a dog, a cat, and two rats.
Life in the Middle Ages can be tough. Nasty, brutish, and short, as they say. War, famine, torture. Plague and intolerance. People getting burned at the stake and all that. And nobody speaks English.
All of which sucks if you're from the 21st Century.
Martin's just a regular guy. A job that's going—well, not exactly nowhere, but not anyplace fast. A condo in the DC suburbs. A Ford Fusion. A couple of beers on a Friday night. But when Martin finds himself in the 12th Century—naked, unarmed, without a single friend or possession—things really take a turn for the worse.
And as if the medieval lifestyle isn't enough of a problem, he's caught between the Holy Roman Emperor and a ruthless local overlord, the plottings of a satanic cult, and the machinations of a self-styled sorcerer bent on dominating the world—or what's been discovered of it so far.
Half the people he meets think he was sent by God or something to solve all those problems. The other half think he was sent from Hell. And a few don't care—they just want him out of their way.
And all Martin wants is to get home. If he can just survive the 12th Century long enough to figure out how—and why—he got there to begin with.
