Blood of the Glacier
by Cassian Eldreth

In a world choking beneath an unnatural thaw, one barbarian will carve his name in blood and ice.

Exiled from the frozen north for a crime of honor, Thrain the Ice-Breaker is captured and thrown into the brutal arenas of the south. There, amid sand soaked with the blood of the fallen, he claims Fimbulwinter-a cursed obsidian axe etched with ancient runes that drinks the souls of its victims and whispers dark hunger into its wielder's mind.Freed in a riot of fire and chaos, Thrain storms into a dying land where rivers run gray with slush and half-giants roam as harbingers of eternal winter. When he crosses paths with Lyra, a flame-haired hearthfire witch fighting to stop the cataclysm, an uneasy alliance is forged in battle and forbidden passion.Together they battle frost-corrupted legions, serpentine priests, and the awakening giants as they race toward the heart of the glacier. There, Queen Morwenna awaits-an ice sorceress who would freeze the world into perfect, lifeless stillness.But victory demands a terrible price. As Fimbulwinter's corruption deepens and the final shattering looms, Thrain must choose between the red joy of slaughter and the last flickering warmth in a dying world.Raw, visceral, and unapologetically brutal, Blood of the Glacier is a sword-and-sorcery homage to Robert E. Howard's Conan. Expect blood-soaked arena fights, soul-devouring weapons, fire-and-ice romance, and a tragic climax worthy of the frozen north.For fans of classic pulp fantasy, grimdark action, and barbarian heroes who laugh in the face of doom.
The axe is hungry. The world is freezing. The storm has come.
