Claws of Midgard - Fenryr's Chosen, #1 - E-book - ePub

Ragnarok burns on the horizon of an urban Nordic city in Midgard, and it's all because of Odin. The Lord of Fangs has ordered his bloodsucking descendants to attack cities all over the world. Though the urban setting is similar to cities on Earth, the magic & monsters are not a secret, and Midgard has its own set of rules. Anyway, the power-hungry god must be stopped by a werewolf named Eldingar, who is Fenryr's chosen.
First, however, the werewolf needs to gain allies. He finds one in an unusual vampire queen named Mia, currently a nurse in Wyrmbite City. Of course, he has to check that she doesn't agree with or worship Odin--something he does a bit too aggressively. The werewolf knows that not all vampires worship Odin; she'll be an essential part of saving the world. After working out some 'minor' issues, the two set off to the city and recruit help.
Mia's best friend, a prince named Rune, joins the party. Following this, a kitsune called Kaida signs onto the quest. Finally, a sorcerer named Atzi and a faerie named Thyra finish off our gathering of heroes. Each have valuable powers that will contribute to Midgard's salvation. They're definitely going to need it. Not only must they deal with the power-hungry deity, but they'll cross claws with his chosen: Huginn and Muninn, among the most powerful vampires in Midgard.
As their city comes under siege by Odin's cult, our heroes must put their heads and magic together to take this evil down or risk the innocent lives of countless people. Author's Note:Join this Urban Fantasy gothic adventure and enjoy LGBTQ+ romantic subplots with diverse adult characters. Not to mention, there are new flavors of vampire lore and new interpretations of the Nordic gods in this modern setting.
The characters and world are saturated with magic that fantasy lovers will adore.  Please be aware that this is not taking place in Earth cities, but cities similar to our own, and there is no 'hidden world' aspect to this work. Magic/monsters are out in the open, as stated above! The character designs are very punk-rock, as that is the aesthetic I enjoy going for and utilize myself. Those who enjoy shifters with a strict wolf form should give this one a pass, as the werewolves are wolf-men.
Same situation for folks looking for the Norse myths or vampires to be told in the traditional fashion! I want to emphasize how this work twists things. CAUTION: Graphic gore, very descriptive sex scenes (end of story), heavy violence, some profanity
