Ethan Gage is back! Starting off in France, Gage is sent to America by Napoleon as a liaison with Thomas Jefferson, carrying the news that France is about to announce that they've acquired the Louisiana Territory from Spain. In turn, Jefferson finances Gage and his mysterious companion Magnus Bloodhammer on their quest to the west, on the condition that they keep a lookout for wooly mammoths. Magnus is convinced that his ancestors, of the Knights Templar nevertheless, journeyed to the American West years before Columbus, and a mysterious runestone seems to validate that. Fighting the British, Indians, and disease, the duo work their way to a fantastic conclusion. I highly recommend this author, but start with the The Rosetta Key. Once you get through Dakota, check out the wikipedia entry on the Kensington Runestone.
