The land of Ossa is in the midst of change. The old prophets have
been murdered and the holy cities razed. Kings are now gods and a
gigantic empire of nomads founded by the greatest ruler of the age,
the mighty Bar Lev, is sweeping through the plains, across the
broad rivers, and over the mountain barriers of Ossa. Against Bar
Lev stands one man: the famous captain of mercenaries from the
west, Talo the Talein. Their struggle is interrupted, however, by
the unfolding of an old prophecy and by the emergence of a new
power in the land. The girl-child Getlof, daughter of an ancient
race. As warriors and kings hasten to harness this prophecy to
their own schemes, they find that the girl, and the spirits of Ossa
who stand behind her, have a power they are unable to comprehend
and fill a need they never knew existed. Ossa is a story of the
spirit and self-realization as much as a tale of adventure and
temporal conflict Strong characters meet in surprising situations
that are fantastic yet strangely familiar. It is a book that will
delight and inspire, and cause the reader to consider the nature of
life and the things that matter most. Vincent P. O'Hara is a well
known military historian and the author of many books and articles.
Ossa is his first published work of fiction.
