Shadow of the Gods

From acclaimed fantasy author John Gwynne comes the first in the Bloodsworn trilogy, an epic of wild lands and wilder magic, where not all monsters fight with tooth and claw...and the treasures of the gods come at a price

This is the age of storm and murder

After the old gods warred and drove themselves to extinction, the cataclysm of their fall shattered the land of Vigrio

Now, power-hungry jarls carve out petty kingdoms, and monsters stalk the shadow-haunted woods and mountains

A world where the bones of the dead gods still hold great power, promising fame and fortune for those brave - or desperate - enough to seek them out

As whispers of war echo over the plains and across the fjords, fate follows the footsteps of three people: a huntress searching for her missing son, a jarl's daughter who has rejected privilege in pursuit of battle fame, and a thrall who has cast off his chains and now fights alongside the famed mercenaries known as the Bloodsworn

All three will shape the fate of the world, as it once more teeters on the edge of chaos
