The Long Winter of Miðgarðr: A Tale from Norvegr (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798344161174)

Three disparate women; one common goal: survive.

Jorunn holds fast to duty and honor. The stalwart shieldmaiden is admired for her skill and courage in a harsh landscape beset by dangers and enemies. Would she sacrifice it all for the love of a beautiful, mysterious woman?

Madlen, a revered holy sister of the Eldríss Hringr, bears a sacred mission to guard Miðgarðr from Surtr and the monstrous fire giants of Muspelheim on an island dominated by a volcanic passage between the realms. While inexplicably drawn to Jorunn, her obligation to the sisters and their tasks must remain her priority.

Young, quick-witted, and sharp-tongued Yngvi, forced into a marriage she didn't want, would much rather be safeguarding the world with Jorunn and Madlen. However, she loves her children with a fierce passion that guides her every action.

Omens, prophecies, and visions from the gods hint at monstrous threats looming over the land-attacks by the draugr of folklore and a bitter, dark winter to surpass previous ones. When the unthinkable happens, many proclaim Ragnarök has come. Can Jorunn's, Madlen's, and Yngvi's diverse talents save their kingdom, or will the gloomy nightmare spell the end of mankind?

Captivating story-teller Edale Lane presents another Tale from Norvegr, a thrilling historical fantasy kissed by sapphic romance. Micheal Crichton's Eaters of the Dead (The 13th Warrior) meets George R. R. Martin's A Game of Thrones with lesbians! If you enjoy watching the past unfold through epic battles, historic disasters, and the love and perseverance of strong women, don't miss The Long Winter of Miðgarðr.
