A broken prince. A shield-maiden bent on vengeance. A Viking world set on fire. With the war against the Gauls over and Angantyr crowned king, everything should have been peaceful. But the arrival of Prince Hlod and its devastating consequences have brought nothing but heartache and darkness. Determined to avenge their losses, Ervie and Loptr will unite the Scandinavian world, including King Ormar of the Myrkviðr, against the Huns. Such an alliance does not come without complications. The war on the battlefield will rival the war in Ervie’s heart as she struggles to find a way forward with Dag and Ormar. But in the shadows, Loki is scheming. The Norns' loom has been rewoven with unforeseen consequences. Join Ervie and Loptr, as well as our other beloved heroes, in this epic conclusion to the Shadows of Valhalla series.
