Reign of Blood

Brynja Hallstrom knows the life of a warrior is forbidden to her. Her father, the iron-fisted king, has deemed her nothing more than a pawn for political gain, shackling her dreams of freedom and agency. But when rebellion sparks against the crown, her brother Espen secretly trains her in combat, awakening a fire within she cannot ignore. Haunted by visions of battle and a white sword drenched in blood, Brynja discovers a connection to a legendary power long hidden -and perhaps, to a destiny she never imagined.
