Fire. The Wheel. Running Away from furry things with more teeth than one might reasonably expect all are testament to man's ultimate supremacy. It is a noble story and so, of course, complete and utter fiction. For one man has discovered the hideous truth: that humanity's ascent to civilization has been ruthlessly guided by a small gang of devious frogs. The mans name is David Perkins, and his theory is not, on the whole, widely admired, particularly not by the frogs themselves, who had invested a great deal of time and effort in keeping the whole thing quiet.

From Publishers Weekly: Because the name Robert Jordan sells books, the publisher has chosen to attribute this novel to "Robert Jordan writing as Reagan O'Neal. " Robert Jordan is a pseudonym as well, however. The author's real name is James Oliver Rigney Jr. , and, in 1981, before he ever wrote as Robert Jordan, he penned this vigorous, bodice-ripping historical as the second novel of a trilogy (begun with The Fallon Blood, 1980, reprinted in hardcover in 1995). The narrative here bursts with information about the sea ("Occasionally a lateen-rigged polacca or xebec slowly circled the brig, swarthy crew staring unblinkingly") and the state of political affairs at the dawn…
