Sword of King James

J. Ardian Lee. Ace Books, $14 (336pp) ISBN 978-0-441-01059-2

J. Adrian Lee fans will welcome Sword of King James, the third entry in the author's time-travel series set in 18th-century Scotland (after 2002's Outlaw Sword). Dylan Matheson, the everyman pulled into the past by faerie magic, must contend with not only hostile English troops but with Morrighan, the Celtic goddess of war, in this romance-heavy fantasy.
