The Wolf in the Whale

Set around 1000 AD, The Wolf in the Whale follows Omat, born with the soul of a hunter and the spirit of the Wolf, destined to carry on her grandfather's role invoking the spirits of the land, sea, and sky to protect her people.

When the gods stop answering and her family begins to starve, Omat sets out across the ice in search of help and finds Brandr, a wounded Viking warrior separated from his kin. Their meeting draws both of their peoples, and their gods, into a conflict that could reshape the new world.

Drawing on Inuit and Norse mythology, the novel imagines an early encounter between Indigenous North Americans and Viking explorers.
