There are forces far beyond mortal ken at play in the universe. Divided between the Creator and Death, the mortal realm hangs in a delicate balance that is protected from immortal interference only by the oaths sworn after the All Souls War. However, the time of those oaths is passing as mortals begin making their way through the six mortal realms and their decisions, actions, and destinies shake all the branches of Yggdrasil…
Set in a universe that closely resembles our own, In the Shadow of Yggdrasil was inspired by G.K.’s love of Nordic mythology (when she was eight, she tried to convince the school library she was more than old enough to read the Elder and Prose Eddas) and her admiration for Marvel’s Avengers (comics and movies). Though not a fanfic, this story carries plenty of adventure, mystery, and magic for everyone.
