Synopsis

His allies helped him defend Gilgin against their ancient enemy, but can they be trusted enough to help him win the war?

After the battle for Gilgin, Finn finds himself the ruler of the city. When the winter snows melt, news reaches him that the nightmarish race of the Ochloroc is stirring in the North to once again threaten their lands.

Meanwhile at home Jorun, the previous ruler of Gilgin who Finn replaced, is raising an army. He claims to be fighting for the good of the city, but Finn hasn't forgotten that the man tried to kill him not even a year ago. Can he trust him now?

In desperate need of allies Finn tries to hold the city of Gilgin together to weather the oncoming storm, even as he wonders who he needs to fear more – his enemies or his friends?

About this title

About the Author

Hi! I'm Roderick.

The first story I remember writing was a retelling of 'Little Red Riding Hood', told from the perspective of the wolf. I wrote it as a play for my hand puppets. At the time, I thought it was incredibly inventive. And it was pretty terrible. I was also 8 years old.

I never did finish that story, but I did fall in love with stories and story telling. I'm never far from a good book. And while I'll read almost anything, I have a preference for reading and writing fantasy.

After dabbling with writing stories over the years I finally sat down to write a book in 2019. And I haven't stopped yet.

When I'm not writing I spend most of my time with my wife and two daughters. Any remaining time goes to rock climbing, gardening and trying to play the guitar.
