An odd mixture of historical thriller/romance and sci fi adventure. Rod Gallowglass and his trusty robot/steed “Fess” end up on the planet Gramarye, only to find it inhabited by people with medieval-era humans and their technology. In addition, there are witches, elves, gnomes, and ghosts. Rod and Fess work to save the people of Gramarye from some time travelers (from Rod’s future) who are devoted to dominating the culture of Gramarye. First in a lenghthy series of books about Rod, his shape-shifting wife Gwen and their three children. ( )

"Look," he said tightly, "try to understand. A man has to have a dream. That's the difference between animals and man, a dream. And a man who's lost his dream is something less than a man, and worthy of no woman. How could I dare claim you if I wasn't a man? A man has to prove his worth to himself, before he can claim a woman, and the dram is the proof. As long as he's working for it, he's got a right to her, because he's worth something."
