Darkness Enthroned: A Rayden Valkyrie Tale

by Stephen Zimmer

In the heart of a frigid northern winter, Rayden Valkyrie takes refuge in the lands of the Sarvan people when a mounted column of Attun warriors is seen passing along the outskirts of their territory heading west. Far from their steppe domain in the east, the Attun warriors are journeying into a remote, unpopulated wilderness, drawing great alarm from the Sarvans about their purpose. Learning of the situation, Rayden joins with a band of warriors from the area’s villages to investigate. Following the tracks of the Attun warriors, they are led to the base of an enormous, ancient burial mound, where the trail vanishes abruptly. A mystery looms, and Rayden seeks to discover the nature of the burial mound and the reason why the Attuns have traveled so far from their homelands to enter it. Darkness Enthroned is a stand-alone adventure that is part of the Rayden Valkyrie Tales.

Enjoyable read with lots of mystery. Rayden as a lead is always splendid with her courage and knowledge. Full review coming to Armed with A Book during the blog tour (April 14th).

Thank you to the author for gifting me a review copy in exchange for an honest review.

I enjoyed this.

Spiritual evil has invaded the world, and a band of warriors lead by a woman warrior must face it.

I enjoyed this intriguing world - because much more is about to happen.

Great book!
