Jendara just wants to get back to sailing, but the locks are still broken. The crew of the Milady has languished in the small settlement of Big Cascade in the Lands of the Linnorm Kings for over a week waiting for repairs to be complete. The ship has important business, not only in trade further upriver, but also to deliver Lugh, a recruit for the Blackravens, to their training camp. The Blackravens find them first, coming into the little village tracking a white wolf. When the dangerous beast attacks, Jendara and Lugh spring into action. Will their assistance be enough to turn the tide?
From author Wendy N. Wagner (Skinwalkers, Starspawn) comes a story of danger and rescue set in Pathfinder's award-winning Age of Lost Omens.
Wendy N. Wagner grew up in a town so tiny it didn’t even have a post office. With no television reception, she became a rabid reader, waiting impatiently for the bookmobile’s fortnightly visit to her tiny hometown. Today, her family struggles to find room for her expanding book collection in their Portland, Oregon, home.
Wendy's work ranges from horror novels to poetry to environmental essays. Her books include THE SECRET SKIN (a gothic novella), THE DEER KINGS (a horror novel), AN OATH OF DOGS (science fantasy), and two tie-in novels for the Pathfinder role-playing game. A Hugo award-winning editor of short fiction, she currently serves as the editor of NIGHTMARE MAGAZINE and the managing/senior editor of LIGHTSPEED.
