About the Author
Twilight of the Gods
Millions of hands raised millions of steins of mead all across Earth-763. For centuries their planet was enthralled with terrible wars. Millions died in their conflicts and many more had their lives destroyed, homes ruined, families crushed and they lost their livelihoods.
Now that was all about to change. Peace would finally rule over their planet.
The All-Thing was telecast from New Asgard, a fortified city in what would be the Swedish fjords on many other Earths. The leaders of the great armies of the world stared into the cameras.
Their eyes beamed.
War Chief Tyrrel sipped his honey wine. The others feasted on the remnants of their world’s livestock, mostly scavenging birds of prey. This was not a world that dedicated much of itself to agriculture.
Tyrrel slammed his fist onto the massive table.

For centuries we have waited for the signs and portents that would eventually unleash dread Loki from his prison at the center of Midgard and we can wait no longer."
War Chief Tyrrel held up a small metal box.
With this machine we will unleash Fenrir the Wolf. With that the gods will descend upon our world and the battle at the end of time shall begin.
He raised his stein to the heavens with his other hand and bellowed, To Ragnarok! To our glorious end!
Billions of voices across the planet joined him. They begged for any escape.
He pressed the button and the Fenrir device began the long and complicated job of destroying the planet’s moon.

The Science Ship Hugin impatiently orbited Earth-763. Nobody foresaw the vast energies slowly building inside the moon. This was well outside Colonel Grimbaq’s, and the rest of his staff’s, experience. They were only there to study this strange planet populated by Viking warriors. If this planet could quit all the wars for a few decades they would be on the cusp of discovering galactic society.
Once the scanners revealed the problem they only had one solution, call somebody who dealt with the strangeness of the universe of a weekly basis.
The Starship Victory glided out of hyperspace and jumped into orbit just behind the Hugin.
The message klaxon sounded across the bridge of the Victory. Colonel Dart nodded and Ensign Brahma brought up the message.
The bridge of the Hugin appeared on the holographic generator on the Victory’s bridge. The image of Colonel Grimbaq stepped forward and said, Colonel Dart.
We came as fast as we could,
Colonel Dart said, "You say this planet’s moon is
