Publisher Description

Sigrid is a Shield-Maiden who yearns to break free of the restrictions of her father's home and join the Sworn Men in an actual raiding expedition. When a small diplomatic party that includes members of the Shield-Brethren lands at her family's holding on Göttland, the party's second in command, Halldor, sees in Sigrid a vision of beauty and power that might challenge - and even destroy - many men.

And when bloody chaos ensues at a nearby Viking fishing village, Sigrid proves she has more than mere talent: she has Vor - the fate sight - an astonishing focus in fighting that sets her apart from nearly all who have ever lived and puts her in the rare company of the finest Shield-Brethren.

But as Sigrid and her family confront her otherworldly ability, will it prove to be a gift to be celebrated, or an affliction to be cured?

"A perfect novella. I haven't read the main trilogy it's based on but I don't feel like I missed anything. Great characters and story development."

    " Another short Novella set in the Mongoliad world. This one doesn't seem to connected in any way to the main story That I've seen. But it is an interesting off side adventure if you like the world the authors created. "
