Curses are powerful, if you believe in them enough.
Davon and his family live a simple life in the beautiful valleys of the Sikrat Mountains, as long as they don't draw the attention of roaming ghastwolves or the keen Earth Dragons on the ridges above.
Davy's purpose is clear: to protect the flock and to help his mother and father.
But when Davy's life is ripped away in one violent night, he learns that he is cursed.
Left to the vicious wolves and dragons of the Sikrat, Davy must find a new way to survive.
Evil hounds him and his flock as he works tirelessly to somehow earn his place in a superstitious and demanding society.
Was his curse the reason for so much lost? Was he an insidious curse infecting everyone around him?
With nothing left, Davy must face the bitter cold of abandonment and reclaim his life, before those who know his secret turn on him.
with R. M. Krogman “ I tend toward longer storytelling with generous world-building, perfect for readers to get lost in and lose plenty of sleep. ”
