About: In this darkly mythical, Finnish folklore-inspired fantasy duology for readers of T. Kingfisher’s Nettle & Bone, Danielle L. Jensen, Thea Guanzon, Jennifer L. Armentrout and The Witch’s Heart by Genevieve Gornichec, two brave young women challenge the gods as well as the mortals, living and dead.
In the Finnish wilderness, the dark woods are home to more than wolves. For Siiri and Aina, the waning light of summer heralds unwanted change. Cattle-hungry Swedes move north, threatening the balance; zealous Christian priests speak out against old ways; and young women have gone missing.
Determined to keep Aina safe, Siiri vows to stop the threat. But even Siiri can’t prevent a death goddess from taking her friend to Tuonela, the mythical underworld. Resolute in her desire to save Aina, Siiri embarks on a treacherous journey north to find the most powerful shaman of lore — the only person to ever go to the land of the dead and return with his life.
The malevolent Witch Queen of Tuonela makes every waking moment a living nightmare for Aina. But filled with compassion and cleverness, Aina discovers the truth behind her sparing: the king of the underworld himself has ulterior motives for her. In order to go home, Aina must negotiate her heart, as Siiri plans an audacious rescue of the woman she loves most in the world.
