About this book

Set Norse-inspired world, and packed with myth, magic, and vengeance, The Shadow of the Gods begins an epic fantasy saga from bestselling author John Gwynne.  A century has passed since the gods fought and drove themselves to extinction. Now only their bones remain, promising great power to those brave enough to seek them out. As whispers of war echo across the land of Vigrid, fate follows in the footsteps of three warriors: a huntress on a dangerous quest, a noblewoman pursuing battle fame, and a thrall seeking vengeance among the mercenaries known as the Bloodsworn. All three will shape the fate of the world as it once more falls under the shadow of the gods. "A masterfully crafted, brutally compelling Norse-inspired epic." —Anthony Ryan The Greatest Sagas Are Written in Blood For more from John Gwynne, check out:  The Bloodsworn TrilogyThe Shadow of the Gods  The Hunger of the Gods  The Fury of the Gods  Of Blood and BoneA Time of Dread  A Time of Blood  A Time of Courage  The Faithful and the FallenMalice  Valor  Ruin  Wrath
