As a summer of swords approaches, everything Astrid hoped for is coming true. She’s found her wolf. A war looms on the horizon—just what a young hero needs to make a name for herself. The path to becoming a warrior of legend is finally clear. Until strange powers awaken in Astrid and her wolf, Maera. Meanwhile, Queen Rosamund has made good on her promise of conquest since taking the throne. Thyrden’s armies march for the Wolfmoors. Wielding forbidden magic, she’s determined to succeed where her father could not. Nothing short of total victory will sate her ambition.

Astrid would give anything to be one of the Ulfsark—fearless warriors who ride giant Amarok wolves. Like her ancestors, she yearns for the soul-deep bond with a wolf. The connection. The union. A chance to prove her worth and honor her mother's legacy.

Astrid and the Skolvarg people are outnumbered and outmatched. Their enemy, Uzell, hunts the Greater Spirits, and as the Skolvarg gods vanish, so does their power. With no other choice, Astrid and her companions must journey across Vigard in search of allies before it’s too late. After traveling to Ochland to seek aid, the situation Astrid and her friends find is far worse than expected—Uzell’s influence runs deeper than they ever imagined, and no country is beyond his reach.
