She keeps the roads honest—and the spirits on speaking terms.

When wagons bog down, animals panic, or the Wilds turn hostile, caravan shaman Anya Stormbloom does what ledgers and swords cannot—she bargains with Air, Earth, Fire, Water, and Spirit.

What should have been a routine run to Redstone turns into a gauntlet: shade-tainted paths, wildfire country, flooded crossings, and a market town on the brink. Each solution adds a line to her oath-ledger—and reveals a storm no shaman should face alone.

Now, a rival shaman is weaponizing the elements, cutting off trade routes to silence the Wilds for good. To protect her found family of drivers, guards, and traders, Anya must weave the elements in tandem and turn the land itself into an ally before Redstone Hold falls dark.

"Fox instills in this fantasy a welcome simplicity...A strong cast, human and otherwise, lead a compelling supernatural tale." -Kirkus Reviews

Vikings meets Lord of the Rings in this fast-paced, standalone fantasy adventure from the bestselling author of the Fae War Chronicles.

In the harsh northern reaches of the Fae world, Saela Bjarnsbane holds power in her blood that could destroy worlds, and she has spent her life learning the sacred mysteries of the sorcery inherited from her ancestors. As the daughter of the most legendary volta of the Eastern Isles and the leader of the wolf-warrior pack of Eskgard, she was born to lead. When her father and the pack are summoned to the northern mountains to fight a war against the trolls, Saela takes up his mantle in the village. But the enemies of the North have raised an evil far more ancient than any living warrior has faced, and the King's volta sends a warning to Saela, the only one who may be able to stop a killing curse from crashing over their lands and devastating their people. In an epic journey to a mountain told by legend to be the home of the gods, Saela learns that a hero's measure lies not in the sorcery running through her veins, but in the choice to keep fighting for those she loves, no matter the cost.

Sen never dreamed of ascension. Such were the aspirations of the rich young nobles, not orphans like him, scraping together a meager living on the streets of Orchard’s Reach.
