 "Visceral, heartbreaking, and unputdownable." - Jay Kristoff on The Shadow of the Gods

THE DEAD GODS ARE RISING.

Lik-Rifa, the dragon god of legend, has been freed from her eternal prison. Now she plots a new age of blood and conquest.

As Orka continues the hunt for her missing son, the Bloodsworn sweep south in a desperate race to save one of their own-and Varg takes the first steps on the path of vengeance.

Elvar has sworn to fulfill her blood oath and rescue a prisoner from the clutches of Lik-Rifa and her dragonborn followers, but first she must persuade the Battle-Grim to follow her. Yet even the might of the Bloodsworn and Battle-Grim cannot stand alone against a dragon god.

Their only hope lies within the mad writings of a chained god. A book of forbidden magic with the power to raise the wolf god Ulfrir from the dead...and bring about a battle that will shake the foundations of the earth.

About the Author

John Gwynne studied and lectured at Brighton University. He has played double bass in a rock 'n' roll band, packed soap in a soap factory, and dug ditches for a landscaping crew. He is married with four children, eight goats, five sheep, three dogs, two horses, and three ducks, and lives in East Sussex, where he is part of a Viking reenactment group. When not writing or running around after his wife and her crazy animals, he can be found standing in a shield wall with his three sons about him.
