The Dragon Hammer by Tony Daniel

Daniel isn't a new writer, but this is the first novel by him, I've read. I tried his collaboration with David Drake a few years back, but it didn't grab me. When I saw this on the Baen website, my initial inclination was to give it a pass. Then I read the sample and had to finish the book. It is set in an alternate North American were magic exists and the Vikings vie with the Romans for control. Good story and characters with a tight style that stays on task. I liked it, and will buy the next book in the series.
