Altana Burrows has always been special. She’s smart, talented, and quick to learn. She also has a secret, and whenever she tries to tell anyone about it—her friends, her family, the school psychiatrist—they accuse her of letting her imagination run away with her. They don’t believe her. They don’t understand. They don’t know about Ilmarinen. They don’t know about the prophecy, or the role Altana will play in it. But the people of Ilmarinen know, and they will help her: a young hunter with a dangerous secret; a talking horse who loves to play; a little girl with a big axe; a beautiful woman in a red dress. Eventually, they will all play a part in Altana’s story, and the fate of a world will rest in their hands. That is, if they can figure out how to kill a god.
“I really enjoyed the novel”
Five Star Review on Amazon By Ammar Habib
I really enjoyed the novel! I’m not a big fantasy reader but was able to read this in a couple of days. It’s just that addicting of a story. I liked how all the characters from the main character of Altana to the minor characters are fleshed out which a lot of times doesn’t happen in this genre of stories. I’d definitely recommend the book to anybody who is a fan of fantasy/world-building novels or somebody who wants to give the genre a try!
About the Author
There isn’t much to say about Marilla Mulwane. She comes from a small town in upstate New York where she writes, reads, plays video games, and makes crafts. She just wants to be a writer and for folks to read her work. Nothing fancy. Of course, if it leads to fame, fortune, and world domination, she won’t complain.
