The Tempering of Men
In Iskryne, the war against the Trollish invasion has been won, and the
lands of men are safe again... at least for a while. Isolfr and his sister, the Konigenwolf Viradechtis, have established their own
wolfhaell. Viradechtis has taken two mates, and so the human pack has
two war leaders. And in the way of the pack, they must come to terms
with each other, must become brothers instead of rivals – for Viradechtis will not be gainsaid.
She may even be prescient.
A new
danger comes to Iskryne. An army of men approaches, an army that wishes
to conquer and rule. The giant trellwolves and their human brothers have never hunted men before. They will need to learn if they are to defend
their homes.
