A Norse farm girl fated to save the gods.
A best friend and lover turned valkyrie.
A fierce right hand to the jarl with a secret that might end his life.
Their forbidden love for each other may ruin them and the gods’ plan to change their own future.
Every year, the gods pay a visit to Skuld—the most powerful seer—to receive a vision of what their future holds. This year’s foresight will lead them to Solveig, a young woman fated to save them from their demise.
Solveig doesn’t know that she is part of the gods’ destiny. She only knows she was born into a world that will not let her love her best friend—Hilde—and instead takes everything from her, including her choice of who she will marry.
In a desperate attempt to plan their getaway, Solveig and Hilde encounter the gods’ seer, who tells them their prophecies.
After that, nothing is the same.
Solveig, desperate to get away from her betrothed—a man of great cruelty—runs away, leaving everything behind. Alone and afraid, death comes for her, and she finds an unlikely ally who offers her two different paths. Become the warrior she has always wanted to be and maybe one day return to her family or hide in a neighboring village and change everything she is, in hopes that the man she is running from never finds her.
When the odds are against you, what path would you take?
This is a FFM Norse fantasy and the first in a duology.
Solveig’s story is interconnected with the Dhampyr Series. This is her origin story. It is a new adult novel that can be read independently of the other series.
Genre: Fantasy
