Rhymer — Gregory Frost

Thomas the Rhymer, legendary twelfth-century figure of traditional Scottish balladry, as you've never seen him before.He’s known by many names over time—Tam Lin, Robin Hood, and numerous other incarnations reaching into the present—but at his heart he is still True Thomas, one man doing all he can to save us all from a powerful foe. When his brother is snatched right before his eyes, Thomas hunts for justice and discovers that not only do these “elves” steal people, but they also are skinwalkers who occupy humans in positions of power. Their goal: to obliterate humanity and take over our world. When Thomas is dragged into their alien realm, he’s imprisoned and barely escapes alive, but in the process he gains near-immortality and the ability to transform himself. Will it be enough to protect his loved ones and defeat this powerful foe? Rhymer brings to life Thomas the Rhymer, legendary twelfth-century figure of traditional Scottish balladry, as a champion who must battle the diabolical Yvag—an alien race thought to be elves and faeries—hell-bent on conquering our world. This saga pits Thomas against the near-immortal elves, first with only his wits, then with powers of his own that enable him to take on these evil creatures throughout the centuries. Praise for Rhymer: “Gregory Frost brings real magic to Rhymer! The novel is a mystical blend of ancient folklore, new ideas, dynamic action, and real surprises. Very highly recommended!” —Jonathan Maberry, NY Times best-selling author of Kagan the Damned
