With the death of the fearsome Ögedei Khan, the Mongol invasion of the West has been brought to an abrupt halt. The defenders, a band of brave warrior monks known as the Shield-Brethren, limp homeward again across a frozen, bloodied wasteland.
But where―and what―is “home” now that the threat of invasion no longer shapes their lives? Thirteenth-century Europe has been saved from annihilation at the hands of the Mongols, to be sure, but new and terrible threats are at hand: political and religious turmoil threaten to turn the warriors’ world upside down once more.
Painted against a rich backdrop of medieval mysticism and Russian folklore, Katabasis weaves together the tales of victor and victim alike in a fearless exploration of what it means not just to survive, but to truly live again.

About the Author
Joseph Brassey lives in the Pacific Northwest with his wife and two cats. He teaches medieval fighting techniques to members of the armed forces. The Mongoliad is his first published fiction.
Mark Teppo is the author of the Codex of Souls urban fantasy series as well as the hypertext dream narrative The Potemkin Mosaic.
Cooper Moo spent five minutes in Mongolia in 1986 before he had to get back on the train—he never expected to be channeling Mongolian warriors. In 2007 Cooper fought a Chinese long-sword instructor on a Hong Kong rooftop—he never thought the experience would help him write battle scenes. In addition to being a member of The Mongoliad writing team, Cooper has written articles for various magazines. His autobiographical piece "Growing Up Black and White," published in the Seattle Weekly, was awarded Social Issues Reporting article of the year by the Society of Professional Journalists. He lives in Issaquah, Washington, with his wife, three children, and numerous bladed weapons.
Angus Trim is a skilled sword-maker and machinist who lives in the Pacific Northwest. He is adept in various western martial arts as well as tai chi sword form.

7 of 7 people found the following review helpful. There and back again. By Sean I took a long break while I was reading book three I'm the series, I think because of the Rome chapters. I didn't know until the end of that book that there was going to be a fourth. Luckily for me, I finished reading the third a day before this one, Katabasis, was released. This time, the reading kept me engaged through the entire book.I particularly enjoy the technicality of the fighting and the descriptions of the tactics. Also, considering how many authors are working on the books, it never feels like a hodge podge of clashing styles.

By Skylark Alauda Thibedeau Katabasis is the 'Mongoliad' series picks up where volume three left off. You can read this without the other three as the Sword Brothers go off in a different direction this time but it helps if you already know the characters.**** Some spoilers for previous Volume*****The Sheild Bretheren have saved the West from the Mongol Hordes. The Great Khan is dead and the Mongol leaders are returning to Karakoram with their armies to elect a new leader. Feronatus has grabbed the mystical Horse banner and is taking it back to the Brotherhood occumpanied by Istvan. The rest of the fellowship now joined by Chinese slave girl courtesan Lian are slowly making their way back across the frozen steppe. The mission over the fellowship begins to question the future unaware that they are being persued by Mongol Warriors Gansukh and Alciq who want revenge for the Great Khan's death and the return of the mystical banner.In Kiev where we left Percival after his vision of the Virgin in the crypt of St. Ilya he and the surviving sheild maidens abandon the fortress after he recieves a new vision from the Babi Yaga. The join up with Prince Nevsky's army as it relieves the city of Pskov which has been overrun by the Tuetonic Knights who have taken advantage of the Mongol retreat to go on a crusade against the Eastern Orthodox Christians in Rus.In Pskov we find our old enemy Kristaps of the Livonian Order having survived the battle at Mongwe Khan's camp has joined the Tuetonic knights in their invasion. With the Catholic Bishop of Livonia they plot the destruction of Prince Nevsky's army which will culminate in the Battle of the Ice.Overall I found the plot ok. I know its hard to put together a multi author story like this. Had I not already been invested in the characters I may not have found it to be as good of a story. The shield brother mysticiam that is hinted in the other volumes is quite plain here and edges the story towrds a 'fantasy' rather than a 'historical' genre.
3 of 3 people found the following review helpful. Too Much of A Departure By Eric B. Burres I loved the first three book in the Mongoliad Cycle. They were full of great characters, complex plots and excellent writing. The fourth book does have have some of these qualities since the two main writers (Neal Stehpenson and Greg Bear) are not involved in its writing. Whille this could have not been a big issue, I feel the introduction of the supernatural elements totally defeats the original concepts of the storyline. This is too bad. I really loved the first three books very much as well as many of the related short stories.
