Sheriff-at-large Baron Godric MacEuan is testing his new prototype siege engine when King Malcolm summons him: Stop a rogue Viking earl from raiding convents and monasteries, massacring clerics to steal treasure. But OdinsØye has hidden well, in an impregnable stone tower concealed in an isolated loch. Can it be taken? Can OdinsØye be stopped? Or will attacking him instead start a vicious new war between Scot and Viking?

READER PRAISE FOR THE SIEGE MASTER SERIES AND CALL TO CRUSADE
"The research is solid, the characters believable. Tom Vetter shows, not tells, his story in a very distinctive voice. I laughed and cried and really, really enjoyed it. There's so much humor, action and hidden truth in there. The story is gripping and won't let the reader go. My husband can’t wait to read it. This book is a great read for readers of all ages. Highly recommended!”—Katharina Gerlach, Author and Publisher, TheIndependentBookworm

“Great Stuff! If you love Bernard Cornwell, you'll love Vetter. He spins tales like Edger Rice Burroughs. Each page, every chapter, keeps you spell-bound. I can't wait for his next installment.”— Diana P.

“I loved Call To Crusade! It rates in my top 5 of best books ever! It was gripping, intriguing, and eventful. There was always a new twist that got me hooked (again)! I couldn't put it down and finished it within a week. I can't wait for the sequel!”—Harrison J., discerning reader
-----
“I compare your writing with some of the authors that I like: Rick Atkinson, John Toland, Jeff Shaara, Laura Hillenbrand, and David Halberstam (Author) — all authors who transport a reader to a different world and hold the reader to the very end of the book. Your writing has the same can't-put-the-book- down qualities. Where have you been hiding?”—Ray S.
-----
"Your TREMENDOUS novel I favorably compare to Herman Wouk’s World War II novels The Winds of War and War and Remembrance. A painless history lesson. Your characters sprang to life from the pages and their activities were vividly described. I had no problem visualizing each scene. Your research appears to have been thorough and adds credibility to the story. I look forward with great anticipation to the next installment." —Sean C.
-----
"I am reading your book every day! It's a little slow-going with a magnifier, but it's worth the effort!”—Mary N.
-----
"I am really enjoying your book! Your imagination is robust, detailed, and very engaging. Bravo!!" —Lisa W.

ABOUT THE Giveaway: I wrote Bone-Crusher: A Godric MacEuan Novella to introduce readers to the SIEGE MASTER series and Call To Crusade, the first book of the series. BONE-CRUSHER has all of the action and intrigue of full-length novels, a memorable cast of characters from the series, and a unique point of view: That of a brilliant young siege master who fights with his brain even more than his brawn.
The Siege Master stories offer readers a fresh new look at the Middle Ages: stories of warriors just as smart as the finest fighting men of today, resourceful men who make novel use of the most advanced engineering skills and technology of their age to defeat impregnable fortresses under insurmountable odds. Best of all, the stories are fact-based -- rousing fiction threaded through real history!
I will be delighted to give this novella, in the e-book format of choice — .mobi or .epub — to every reader who wants it. I invite you to visit my website, http://www.tomvetterbooks.com/bone-cr... to download it.
