Wolf Winter

WOLF WINTER IS THE FIRST IN A NEW SERIES, AGE OF TYRANTS, BY MULTIPLE AMAZON BESTSELLING AUTHOR C.R. MAY - A REIMAGINING OF HEART OF DARKNESS AND APOCALYPSE NOW, SET DURING THE VOLCANIC WINTER OF 536.

Gruff voices carry above the crackle of burning thatch. Words spoken in Norse. As he embarks upon the next stage of his journey, Holger savours the sound, the creeping realisation that he may never hear the like again growing with every step.

THE BARBARIAN NORTH

Lordless following a bloody sacrifice in Uppsala, Holger Skamkeling retreats to the wildwood as the Wolf Winter bares its fangs.

Crops are washed away. Bergs plague the sea-lanes as a ghostly fog cloaks the world. With populations starving, and the coastal pans unworkable in the bone-numbing freeze, salt, for curing, becomes the currency of power.

Summoned by Eystein, king of the Swedes, Holger is sent on a mission deep into the lands of the Lutici; to the temple at Rethra, where a shadowy figure has halted the shipments of rock salt from the mines.

His directive is simple: Do whatever it takes to restore the supply.
