I really enjoyed the second book in this series of five. Too bad Aiki does not have a better editor, misspelled words or words with an added letter were distracting.But the good news is the story telling has stepped up another couple levels. Imagine the five questing friends are now in Trolltiven or Troll land. A black wolf has forced them into Trolltiven. After finding a cave Marcus goes out to hunt food, the two or four footed kind. But a Troll by the name of Grendel finds him and starts to play with him like a cat does with a mouse.Worried when Marcus does not return Phoenix goes looking for him and finds Marcus and a twenty foot high troll playing kick the can. Only problem is Marcus' new name is 'can'. Playing tag team P & M distract Grendel until they get to a small mountain with a flat top. Marcus starts lighting pine trees around the flat table top and Phoenix plays tag with Grendel.Inspiration comes in the form of a lasso rope which Marcus gives Phoenix. Laying it out as a trap in the middle of the flat top, Grendel thinks it a funny joke. Until after stepping into it Phoenix runs between Grendel's legs, around and around go Phoenix and Grendel. Finally Grendel is so tied up that he stumbles and falls. At just the point of hitting the ground the sun comes up and petrifies Grendel. End of Rock Giant. Just a taste to wet your appetite.
