The Chronicles of Winter & Spring [Book 1] : A Song of Kings
From the series of A Tale of Blades & Blood, The Chronicles of Winter & Spring go deep into the roots of the known world. The world of winter may fall with the rise of spring, but it will return another day. Witness the rich history, drama, wars, and politics that has shaped the kingdom of the north.
In the world of Avalion, kings are everywhere- in every corner, and under every arc than you see. Beyond the vast north lives the goats of House Ballister, forged since the dawn of man and now kings of the four regions. Beyond the fruitful east stands the owls of House Strix, who rule The Spire with an iron fist and are the richest of all houses. Deep in the south lives the loyal ravens of House Ravenhan, who were given honor and pride by those they serve. Beyond the west stands the builders and warriors of House Gryphith, tied to the crown by marriage and builders of great constructions.
Though kings are remembered in history, much of what we know comes from the bards that sing their songs amongst the feasts of future lords and ladies. From the written records of scribes and the lyres of singers, let us witness none but one thing-- A Song of Kings.
