Bastial Steel — B.T. Narro

Dragged to an unfamiliar continent transformed by war and monstrous creatures, Cleve's path home has never been less clear. With a place in a king's plot, a princess who wants to marry him, and the companionship of a brash Sartious mage, Cleve learns that -- while some battles are won with a sword -- others are played out through a more delicate dance. But Cleve has never been one for delicacy. Soon he's making tidal waves in every puddle he crosses on his path to return home. NOTE: It's recommended that Bastial Energy and The Sartious Mage be read before this novel, but it doesn't matter which book is read first between those two.
