A throne in jeopardy. A tragic betrayal. Two heirs desperately trying to save their land. Can they overcome their foes before the realm is lost to war?
Bjorn, the youngest son of the jarl, has always felt more at ease with a quill than a sword. Though he is scorned as a coward, he has resigned himself to the life set before him as the lawspeaker, the judge and executor of his father's laws.
Yet after a tragic turn of events, Bjorn is compelled to take up the sword he fears and pursue vengeance for his fallen kin. Gathering a company of warriors both seasoned and fresh, he ventures into the wintry mountains after his enemies, though the journey may prove to be deadly for them all. But an ancient power stirs in him, and the whispers of prophecy beckon him toward a world-shattering destiny...
In her brother's absence, Aelthena takes up the reins of leadership. She's always yearned for a chance to prove herself, yet she finds one obstacle after another standing in her way. With enemies of both mankind and myth rising against the jarlheim, and her hold on her family's lands growing more uncertain, even her allies begin to question her right to rule...
Can Bjorn claim vengeance and Aelthena keep the throne as the Runewar rises to swallow all the world?
