Runebound: A Historical Fantasy Of The Old Gods, Destiny, And Awakening Power (The Last Rune Of Rungardvik Series Book 1)

~ A 5-Star Rating from Readers' Favorite ~Milena of Mecklenburg was raised to honor duty before all else. But fate had other plans.Born into a Christian court that has abandoned the old gods in favor of the Church and promised to a Saxon noble to secure her father's rule, she is expected to submit without question, even as the remnants of the pagan North still breathe beneath the surface.Haunted by prophetic dreams and guided by intuition, Milena receives a rune long destined to find her. Its ancient power awakens something within her that does not belong to the world she knows.When Norse traders arrive to barter with her father, she is introduced to another way of being and encounters a young warrior who becomes a threat to everything her father has built on buried grief, shame, and regret.To choose her own path means betraying her family, her faith, and the fragile order that holds her world together.And once she begins, there will be no turning back.Runebound is a richly grounded historical fantasy with a thread of romantic tension, set in the twelfth century, where the old gods endure in the shadow of the rising Cross. It’s a tale of love, destiny, forbidden belief, and awakening power for readers drawn to mythic, folkloric stories in the tradition of The Bear and the Nightingale and Uprooted.📖 Available on Amazon: https://amzn.to/4t5eKOL
