The Staff Of The Winds (The Wizard Of South Corner Book 1) - Plot & Excerpts
He then mounted and worked his way on a twisting path through the trees in a generally north-easterly direction. His original intention was to move quickly, and come out on the trail to South Corner well ahead of the gorn. This was not to be. The ground was too rough, and the woods too close to make good time on horseback. Tight patches of evergreen and closely spaced aspen seemed to deliberately inhibit his progress. The deer trails he followed seemed to duck under the branches, or follow twisting routes through the dense brush, making it impossible to ride, or often even lead his mount, so that he spent a great deal of time seeking alternate paths that would take him in the general direction he needed to go.As he struggled north, Jack gradually worked his way east to converge with the road. Eventually, the woods began to thin, but Jack could no longer be certain of his location in relation to his enemy. He had pushed to make the best time that he could, so that he would be ahead of the gorn when he reached their line of march, but the gorn’s path of travel had been much easier and more direct than his.
