The Archean Empire devours all in its path — toppling kings, razing cities, massacring opposition. Sweeping into the brutal north, a land of cold, ragged mountains, and dark myths, they expect their infamous discipline to crush the white-hot rage of its sea reavers and dreaded berserkers. At first, they are right. But their invasion dislodges a pebble destined to become an avalanche. Forced into exile, Skadi Styrbjörnsdóttir begins a journey that brings her to the attention of the gods, arms her with legendary weapons, and sets her against immortal foes. Wielding her ever-growing wyrd, she seeks to avenge her people — and one day destroy the Archean Empire.

Skadi's world is shattered when an empire razes her home. Fleeing to her uncle's remote stronghold on the dreaded Draugr Coast, she vows to become a shieldmaiden and avenge her kin. But she carries a secret: she has already died once, resurrected by a cruel goddess and gifted with the power to weave fate itself. Amidst carnivorous mermaids lurking in icy waters, undead haunting mist-laden mountains, and gods walking among mortals, Skadi's quest for vengeance unfolds in a fierce saga of revenge, rebirth, and the brutal beauty of Norse myth.

#2 Skadi's Saga 2

Goodreads4.71· 96

On the desolate Draugr Coast, Skadi's name has become legend — giantslayer, shieldmaiden, wyrd weaver, jarl's daughter. She has conquered all who stood in her path. Now her quest for vengeance leads her to an ancient, festering evil buried deep within the Coast — a force so malevolent that even the mightiest warriors tremble before it. They tell her it is hopeless, that to fight this darkness is to condemn the land to ruin. But Skadi bows to no one but her goddess, and when dread Freyja commands her, she will defy the impossible.
