Geis of Wolves

THE ANTLERED THRONEThe Geis of Wolves - Book TwoThe old god is fading. His wolves are no longer safe.Four hundred years of peace have made the pack forget what they are. But a new king is rising in the south - Offa of Mercia, who clears the sacred forests for churches and outlaws the old ways - and the god who cursed the bloodline is dying faster than the woods can fall. As his power wanes, so does his protection: a blade with a saint's name and a basin of holy water can now do what no mortal weapon ever could.When a gentle, certain priest comes north carrying that blade, the wolves discover their long safety was only ever borrowed. The deathless king who has reigned since the founding, the heir who rules by a circle of voices, the mortal healer who loves him, and the undying witness who has seen it all before must decide what a vow is worth when the god who set it can no longer keep his end - and what survives when the wild itself is being hunted to the root.A diminishment. A reckoning. The price of a borrowed peace.For readers of grimdark and historical fantasy who like their myth bloody, their faith complicated, and their monsters bound by honor.
