Wren Kergatha defeats Hecate and reclaims her family only to face new challenges. The Kriar have infiltrated Starholme. Then her mentor in G'yaki combat, Vera, suffers a breakdown. As if that's not enough, her grandmother Idun the pantheon lady wants to start a god war. While Wren embraces her Aesir heritage, becoming a general like her mother and grandmother, she fights a ground war in the quest to locate Vera's G'yaki clan. Only then will decades-old wounds heal. Alas, being far stronger and accompanied by an army of allies doesn't stop Wren's enemies from causing trouble. The only way to set matters right with Vera, herself and her family is to battle dragons, gods, and even a rogue member of the firsts.
