Story with a spaceship that crashes into a medieval civilization
It’s a science fiction story at least 10 years old where people on spaceship crash into medieval type civilization. I only remember bits and pieces as I read as a kid and mom made me return it, :(.
- They used the ship’s laser to sharpen their swords and have the best medieval weaponry.
- Started trading with some people but of course ended up in war.
- I still remember the ending after all this time: The commander of the medieval army is attacking and the ship people somehow make their laser expand and take out the whole force, and as the commander is hit the author writes "he watched the ?picture of his family melt, and he along with it."
I’ve searched for this book for 5-10 years now and no luck - one of my biggest regtets is returning it. If you find it I will be forever grateful!
