Svartån has its thegn-heir. Now comes the harder part. Ina Svanunge fought for her birthright - and won. But ruling Svartån is proving far more treacherous than claiming it. With the Isillas ice elves massing on the border, Ina's first task is clear: unite her people and prepare for war. The problem? Half of Svartån doesn't believe a girl from Fargo has what it takes to lead them. The other half harbors a generations-old hatred for their half-elven neighbors - the very allies Ina needs most.
Racing to master both her magic and her political footing, Ina knows she's running out of time. And when the Isillas finally strike - targeting not just Svartån, but the people she loves most - she'll have to face them with a fractured kingdom at her back. She didn't come this far to lose everything now. Perfect for fans of Narnia, How to Train Your Dragon, and Skyrim.
