Here are the synopsis of the three novellas included in this exciting new compendium!
Depths of Night: After a harrowing end to a long sea journey, the famed northern warrior Ragnar Stormbringer and a force of warriors step ashore in the lands of the Petranni, a tribal people known for their workings in silver and gold. The search for plunder takes a sharp turn when homesteads, villages, and temple sites show signs of being recently abandoned.
When it is discovered that the Petranni have all taken refuge within a massive stronghold, Ragnar and the others soon fall under the shadow of an ancient, deadly adversary. Wielding his legendary war axe Raven Caller, Ragnar finds his strength tested like never before.
When the Cold Breathes: There are times when the cold breathes.
Settlers from Ragnar Stormbringer’s homelands are forging a new world in the far north, building villages where the icy lash of the winds is a reminder of the dangers lurking within a harsh wilderness.
A season of great peril has fallen upon them. A fearsome predator stalks and hunts the settlers in the deep snows. As the deaths mount and terror spreads among the populace, Ragnar’s help is sought to confront the unknown menace.
Taking up his legendary axe Raven Caller, Ragnar heads into the falling snows. He will soon find that the myths told in the region have more than a little truth dwelling within them.
What lies in the cold embrace of death and darkness can awaken, breathe, and gaze through eyes of spectral light.
When the Cold Breathes is a stand-alone novella that is part of the Ragnar Stormbringer tales!
Altar of Gods: Ragnar Stormbringer and a large band of warriors from his homelands find themselves stranded within a mysterious, dangerous land.
Trapped, with no way home, and pitted against a fearsome chieftain’s desire to see all of the northern warriors offered to bloodthirsty gods, Ragnar must call upon every bit of inner and outer strength that he possesses just to survive another day; much less seek a way back to his homelands.
Altar of Gods is a stand-alone novella that is part of the Ragnar Stormbringer Tales.
