Long Exile

THE LONG EXILEThe Geis of Wolves — Book OneHow the wolves were cursed, and exiled, and found their home.There was a god in the wild once, and the kings of Dál Riata broke faith with him.In the dying days of Roman Britain, a starving king leads his people into a forbidden glen to take what the old god has forbidden — and for that sin, the Horned One lays a curse on his bloodline that will outlast empires. They will wear the shapes of wolves. They will guard the wilderness they betrayed. And they will not be permitted to die.Cast out from their hall, hunted as monsters, the cursed must learn what they have become: the joy and horror of the change, the terrible price of the vow that binds them, and the cost of keeping faith with a god who is himself fading from the world. To survive, they must build a new home in the heart of the oldest wood — and discover whether a people unmade by a curse can become something worth saving.Steeped in Celtic and Norse myth and the real history of early-medieval Britain, The Long Exile opens a sweeping five-book saga of bloodline and bond, faith and wildness, and the long defense of a vanishing world.For readers of historical and epic fantasy who like their myth bloody, their curses old, and their monsters bound by honor.
