One of many fantasy tales by the late David Drake, this one is typical of his style. Accompanied by his faithful robot, sage and servant Chester, a young protagonist-hero leaves his comfortable castle and heads out into the jungle seeking adventure. I found it a nice diversion from more serious works and a good if not great read.
