Reseña del editor:
Kris, the eldest son of the clan patriarch and the strongest of the woodcutters, is typically kind-hearted and level-headed, but his pride leads him to make an unwinnable wager: to capture a flying reindeer. Kris sets out on a journey with little hope that he’ll return with anything other than humiliation. Along the way, he meets an unlikely magical companion who changes everything. Kris is met with a gruesome discovery when he returns home that sets him on a course for revenge against an immortal beast. His foolhardy attempt sets in motion a war that draws in the entire village, magical creatures, and even the gods themselves. If Kris is to end this bloodshed, he must be prepared to sacrifice everything dear to him – even his own life – as he’s the only hope standing between the beast’s hunger and the rest of humanity.
Biografía del autor:
Virgil C. Jones, III comes from a family of writers. His grandfather, Virgil Carrington Jones, was a prominent Civil War author and wrote groundbreaking books such as Ranger Mosby, The Hatfields and the McCoys, and The Civil War at Sea. His father, V.C. (Pat) Jones, Jr., was a playwright who wrote a number of brilliantly developed plays without seeking publication. Virgil’s brother, Peyton Jones, is a leading Christian author who is changing the way folks view the mission of the church, and at the time of this writing is preparing to release his third book. Virgil has been writing for as long as he can remember but didn’t decide to publish until he felt the need to compete with his brother. He currently lives on top of a mountain with his family, thirteen horses, three goats, seven chickens, four dogs, six cats, and a bird named Kramer, who, by the way, is a girl. He has two grown sons and three grandchildren nearby, and when he wins the lottery he plans to move all of them to his mountain so he can give them useless daily advice which he’s sure they’ll enjoy. Virgil is a retired military officer and is the founder of the Desert Knights of America Motorcycle Club and the Red and Tan Nation.
