Dawn of the North
Synopsis
Dawn of the North continues Demi Winters' Ashen series as the long-lost Volsik heir, Silla, works to win the loyalty of Íseldur's northern jarls and topple King Ivar Ironheart from his throne. Her mission is complicated by a shard of a god lodged in her mind, one that bends her thoughts and actions toward its own ends. Meanwhile her sister, Saga Volsik, held captive on the isolated isle of Zagadka, must decide whether to serve Ivar's cause or risk everything to protect the innocent people caught in the middle. As a poisonous mist creeps across the realm, both sisters are forced to master magic they don't fully understand.
A Viking-inspired romantasy with dual points of view, expanding the war and the god-touched threat introduced earlier in the series.
