The Pyramid is baacckk! Well, actually, it never went awaybut it had seemed to be inactive, still sitting in the middle of Chicago but no longer growing and wiping out buildings as it grew. The Krin device would have been thwarted, if things had been left as they werebut a V.I.P., who knows too many state secrets to be allowed to be missing, was left behind in the world of Greek mythology. So a power-mad Washington bureaucrat has press-ganged several of the survivors of the first excursion into the pyramids worlds and sent them, along with a team trained in “surgical strikes,” to either bring back the V.I.P. or, if thats impossible, terminate him with extreme prejudice.

     Unfortunately, instead of returning to mythological Greece, they find themselves in the world of the Norse gods. Even if they manage to survive the enmity of Odin and his warriors, can manage to free Loki (a potential ally) and can keep the hard-drinking thunder-god Thor off the sauce long enough to help them, Ragnarok is coming, with the end of the world. And even a hard-headed maintenance man with his trusty toolkit may have trouble fixing that problem!

The pyramidal device sent by the Krin to dominate the Earth would have been thwarted, but a V.I.P. who knows too many state secrets was left behind in the world of Greek mythology. Survivors of the first excursion into the pyramids worlds must either bring back the V.I.P. or terminate him.

In this sequel to "Pyramid Scheme," a V.I.P. who knows too many state secrets has been left behind in the world of Greek mythology. Survivors of the first excursion into the pyramids worlds must either bring back the V.I.P. or terminate him.

With Eric Flint he has co-authored Rats, Bats & Vats, The Rats, the Bats & the Ugly, and the prequel to Pyramid Power, Pyramid Scheme.  He has also collaborated with Mercedes Lackey and Eric Flint in a sweeping alternate history-fantasy set in the Renaissance.
