    About this ebook

    I had a dream so vivid, I thought it must be true.
    I took it for history, with my pen I'll pass it to you.

    There was once a Warrior of Storme. Bred to battle was he.
    Rode a horse called Eadayo, the thunder that runs free.

    Telia, the fair maiden whom the Warrior was destined to love,
    came to him in darkness broken only by the moon above.

    High price the Warrior paid for everyman' she desire,
    to win the one whose beauty sets his soul afire.

    "The Running Thunder" is the epic legend of Estavanico and Eadayo, warrior and warhorse, of the Clan of Storme. Brothers from birth, they are the strongest of their kind, linked together in triumph and tragedy.

    A story told by Taja the Griot as a relayed dream, enter the battles of war as Estavanico and Eadayo become ghosts of nightmares and heroes of legend.
