Description
A new series from the author of The Raven Rings trilogy - Siri Pettersen! Juva knows all about blood readers. Praised for their Sight, they are nothing but swindlers, preying on people's fears for power and profit. Born by blood readers herself, she knows only too well, and she has vowed never to become one of them. But when her family is threatened by vardari, the eerie lasting ones, who never age, Juva is entangled in a desperate hunt for the blood readers' legacy: a dark secret that once changed the world, and may do so again. In order to survive, she has to confront the terrifying childhood memory she fought to forget. Iron Wolf is a new spellbinding fantasy mystery from Siri Pettersen, built on a Norse foundation, about blood, desire and addiction. It's the first book in the trilogy VARDARI, an independent series set in the universe of the award-winning fantasy phenomenon THE RAVEN RINGS.

About the Author
Siri Pettersen made her sensational debut in 2013 with the Norwegian publication of Odin's Child, the first book in The Raven Rings trilogy, which has earned numerous awards and nomiations at home and abroad. Siri has a background as a designer and comics createor. Her roots are in Finnsnes and Trondheim, but she now lives in Oslo, where you're likely to find her in a coffee shop. According to fellow writers, her superpower is "mega-motivation"--the ability to inspire other creative souls. Tara Chace has translated more than fifty novels from Norwegian, Danish, and Swedish. She translates literature, crime, books for young adults and children, and non-fiction. Some of her recent translations include Edvard Hoem's Haymaker in Heaven (Milkweed Editions), Katrine Engberg's The Harbor (Gallery/Scout Press), Jan Stocklassa's The Man Who Played with Fire (Amazon Crossing), and Line Renslebråten's Under the Polar Ice (Fitzhenry & Whiteside). Her work has won the L.A. Times Prize and the American Scandinavian Foundation Translation Prize.
Reviews
"Juva is a compelling and relatable protagonist, and the world Pettersen creates will appeal to fans of vampire and werewolf lore."-- "Booklist"
"Taut and suspenseful, the intricate plot unwinds and repeatedly resets as Juva (and readers) uncover truths buried in ancient lies and traumatic memories. The masterful worldbuilding and vivid Nordic setting populated with compelling secondary characters . . . are well served by the stirring prose." An immersive, darkly exhilarating read. Kirkus, starred review-- "Kirkus Reviews"
