THE LAST SPACE VIKING by John F. Carr & Mike Robertson is a sequel to H. Beam Piper's Space Viking. It takes place about a century after the legendary Lucas Trask first created the League of Civilized Worlds. Lucas Trask’s dreams for a new galaxy order appear destined for failure when a new power emerges from the ashes of the Old Federation. Will King Rodrik Trask be able to salvage his grandfather’s dream? Captain David Morland of Joyeuse might well be last of the great Space Viking captains. He emerges at a time when the Old Federation is changing, and not for the better. All Morland wants is his own base world to use as a center for organizing raids and trading parties into the thousands of worlds of the long-dead Federation. Generations of Space Viking marauders have taken their toll and plunder-worthy planets have declined as more of the Old Federation worlds have slipped into barbarism. To save his dream, Morland has to find the right Neobarbarian world and conquer it before he’s discovered by the new dynasty that’s determined to end the Space Viking menace, one way or another!
