Synopsis

300 years after the battle of Ragnarok, the succession of Bearn is in doubt. As the old king lies dying, his successors are slowly whittled away, until only one remains, child of exiled parents. The deputations sent to fetch him do not return so it is left to Matrinka to do what others could not.

About this title

Review

Praise for the Renshai Chronicles:
Delightful fantasy, featuring sympathetic characters, magical battles galore, edge-of-seat suspense, and truly impressive worldbuilding. Complex, intricate, by turns challenging and rewarding, this is ultimately quite a satisfying fantasy reading experience. "VOYA"
Reichert has the uncanny ability to sustain unremitting horror and suspense for over 700 pages, mind.... Altogether magnificent. The tangled interrelationships, including a tangled romance, are as fascinating as her enthusiastic descriptions of bloody, bloody battles. Her mastery of military matters is quite incredible. "Kliatt"
[Reichert s] most ambitious and satisfying work to date. "SF Chronicle"
Handled with literary skill and folkloric scholarship that further raises the level of suspense. "Booklist"
[Reichert s] best book to date and one of the best fantasy reads of the year.... Excellent high fantasy. "South Bend Tribune""
