But when an ancient obsidian artifact reacts to my blood, I’m flung back to 942 AD—a world where the Viking age is ruled by dark paranormal syndicates. The history books never mentioned that the Norse kings were wolf-shifters, or that their ancient bloodlines are thinning, driving them into a feral “winter madness.” They call me the Sun-Witch. An ...
