Völvur, the first witches, were the first supernatural creatures to walk the earth.

The supernatural world eventually had to hide, however, as a war was waged against them. In a story which spans more than one thousand years, the bravery, romances, and struggles of past and present Völvur are revealed. Some loyal even in the afterlife, vampires, werewolves, shifters, and demonic bounty hunters all must prove the lengths to which they will go to protect their pack.
