Seer of Midgard

Vision of fate. Whispers of magic. The rise of a legend begins.

Born amid a raid on a stormy winter night, Snehild enters the world delivered by a mysterious jötunn woman. Her first breath draws a prophecy from the Norns—one destined to shape the fate of kingdoms.

Years later, unrest festers in the royal court of Himlinge. King Tormod suspects his brother-in-law of treachery. The cunning advisor, Brynjulf Raveneye, debates which of the twin princes should inherit the crown. High Priestess Ragnfrid seethes with jealousy toward the local herbalist, beloved by the royal family. But the greatest threat to Ragnfrid's power may be the herbalist's daughter—Snehild—whose prophetic visions could upend the balance of the realm. And the priestess will stop at nothing to prevent that.

But a heroine blessed by the gods and marked by prophecy cannot be easily destroyed. Forced into exile, Snehild sets out on a perilous journey to uncover the secrets of her bloodline and the true depth of her powers.

The Seer of Midgard is an epic Norse fantasy that plunges readers into Iron Age Scandinavia, where court intrigue, blood vengeance, and ancient magic decide the fate of many. Perfect for fans of House of the Dragon, The Roots of Chaos, and The Poet Empress.
