Rune of Strength - Rune-Child Saga, #1

Yut Eriksson barely comes to terms with his boring destiny before it is incinerated. For better or worse, this brings him to Olaf, a soldier-turned-looter whose only care is to secure at least one more weapon; Sigrid, an outlaw who seeks the truth of her nature amid a bloody past; and Eira, a blind seeress who leads the scavengers on a quest shrouded in secrets. Together, they will have to navigate a path filled with peril to survive their fate.
And though rune-magic is feared throughout Arthgard, Yut will have to dive head-first if he is to find the impossible vengeance he longs for. Embark on a gripping, action-packed adventure filled with humor, colorful characters and epic showdowns in this norse-inspired debut.
