Wolf Song Saga

The fate of the Wolf Riders falls on an outcast. 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. Yet she's never heard the Wolf Song. And with each passing year, it's likely she never will. Astrid refuses to accept her fate. Then an encounter with a nature spirit and a foreign princess dashes her last hope and changes everything. Accused of killing a royal guardsman, Astrid travels to the halls of a mad king to clear her name and stop a war against her people. Though she has no Amarok wolf, Astrid refuses to fail her tribe. Even if she cannot be an Ulfsark. There, she'll discover a regular wolf that opens her heart, friends she never asked for, and a new world far more dangerous, and strange, than she ever imagined. Will Astrid save a fragile peace and embrace her destiny? Or will her dreams of the Wolf Song fade in distant lands? Join Astrid and friends on a thrilling new fantasy adventure in “A Spring for Spears,” the first novel in the “Wolf Song Saga” series by best-selling, award-winning authors Katie Cross and Derek Alan Siddoway.

The final stand of the Wolf Riders has begun. 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. Their only hope lies in the lost land of Rymnir, the birthplace of the gods. In pursuit of a miracle, Astrid, Maera, and her friends embark on a perilous quest through foreign realms and forgotten kingdoms, where old acquaintances and unexpected enemies await. Swords and spears alone will not be enough. To save the Skolvarg, Astrid must embrace her destiny as the Wolf Seer and wield the power of the spirits, or see everything she loves destroyed by Uzell's corrupted magic. Return to the Wolf Song Saga in this fast-paced, Nordic-inspired YA fantasy conclusion!

The wolf riders prepare for war. 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 satisfy her ambition. As both sides ready for battle, Astrid and her friends find themselves far from the conflict, chasing after myths in the wilderness with an eccentric old matriarch. Their journey is nowhere near the glorious future Astrid had in mind. But not all is at it seems, even in the wild north. When tragedy strikes, Astrid risks everything to challenge Rosamund's dark magics. If Astrid and Maera hope to save the wolf riders, they'll have to trust in each other, and their newfound powers. Not every fight is won with iron. And sometimes, fate has other plans in mind.
