The Destiny of the Sword
THE RIDDLE OF THE GODDESS
Wallie Smith had been dying on another world when the Goddess
transferred his mind to the body of the barbarian swordsman Shonsu.
Then She gave him the great, magical Sapphire Sword of Chioxin and sent
him on a mission.
All he had to do was to lead the arrogant band of swordsmen to destroy the sorcerers and their Fire God.
Now Wallie discovered that he'd already tried it – and been hopelessly defeated.
A few complications cropped up. Wallie's reputation was in tatters. His
best friend and pupil was apparently planning to betray him. And if he
won, he would doom all hope of progress and learning in this World of
the Goddess – doom the Goddess Herself.
It made an interesting kind of riddle. All he had to do was find the solutions – and survive, if he could!
