Mere years after Famine and the sinking of Magog, Lady Mew and her fledgling cult have disappeared, while Wulf hides, coordinating an underground resistance against the spread of an evangelizing Horde. Out on frozen plains, War rages in a battlefield between angel and demon, and a resurrected Liege of Foes rises to unite a disparate land. While beneath it all, the Garm begin to make their move… Lie by the Sword is the follow-up to Wind of Chains and the penultimate chapter of the Fimbulvetr Books. Daniel Scott Westby tells a tale of destiny and legacy while imagining a future in which no hope remains, but in which unique characters find solace and salvation in each other.
