Amid the frozen battlefield of the north, a lone warrior, Amra of Akbitana, stands victorious. But his triumph is short-lived as a hauntingly beautiful, otherworldly woman appears, luring him deeper into the icy wastes. As Amra pursues her, his reality blurs between the brutal world of men and the supernatural forces of the frost giants. A tale of obsession, madness, and the chilling touch of gods, Gods of the North is a striking blend of myth and heroism.
