It turns out unrequited love is only the beginning of my problems. I will never forget the two boys from my childhood—my best friend, Josh, and my unrequited love, Conall. I have chased after my childhood crush, Conall, since I’ve had unicorn plushies. I followed him everywhere, even into the dangerous and foreboding forest. Now, at twenty-one years old, my body continues to crave his touch. Standing at six foot, six inches of primal masculinity with emerald-green eyes and sharp cheeks, Conall is every college girl's wet dream. When Conall leaves town on a year-long trip, I seize the opportunity to move on and reinvent myself. Love takes courage. After Josh’s disappearance, I set on a dangerous path of finding out what happened to him. But I discover more than I thought possible. After my twenty first birthday, I learn the truth—I live in a supernatural world, more specifically, in a pack of werewolves. And any human who learns the truth of the wolves must be killed. Good thing humans are protected by the Order of Hunters. Bad thing is now I’m in the middle of a brewing fight between the hunters—my friends—and the werewolf pack—my family. It turns out I may have my loyalties mixed up. And as a mere human, what can I even hope to do about it?

The overlapping worlds of gods and men collide in the concluding volume of an epic fantasy trilogy set in cold harsh arctic lands. In the Northlands of Davvieana, power rests in the hands of the High Priest of the Order of Believers. But his earthly supremacy is contested. Those few Piijkij that remain continue to honor the oath of the Brethren of Hunters: protect the Olmmoš people from danger. This time, however, it is not the immortal Jápmemeahttun who represent a threat to human freedom, but their own kind. Against insurmountable odds, this small band of dedicated men will use any and all means open to them to bring down the man who betrayed them all. The struggles of men, however, mean little to the immortals beyond the vail in the Song of All. Vanquished, facing a doomed existence, any hope for a future slowly slips away as the best efforts of Dárja and Marnej prove inadequate. When they both fail to safeguard those closest to them, the bond between these two unlikely allies, forged by necessity and emboldened by a tentative passion, may not be enough to overcome the secrets and lies that have shadowed their lives. When betrayal and shame guide the future, the outcome can be treacherous. For both humans and immortals to find their way forward, they must seek out those who offer an unprecedented vision over a quest for power.

This edited volume analyzes the belief in supernatural gamekeepers and/or animal masters of wildlife from a cross-cultural perspective. It documents the antiquity and widespread occurrence of the belief in supernatural gamekeepers at the global level. This interdisciplinary volume documents both the antiquity and the widespread geographical distribution of this belief along with surveying the various manifestations of this cosmology by way of studies from Europe, Asia, Africa, and North and South America. Some chapters explore the manifestations of this belief as they appear in petroglyphs/pictographs and other forms of material culture. Others focus on the environmental impacts of these beliefs/rituals and prescribed foraging restrictions by analyzing how they affect game harvests. The internationally recognized scholars in this volume assess the efficacy of this particular form of traditional ecological knowledge (TEK) and investigate if adherence to the belief in animal masters actually causes hunters to refrain from overharvesting wild game and thereby contributes to sustainable hunting practices. This volume is of interest to anthropologists, archaeologists and other social scientists researching traditional ecological knowledge (TEK), indigenous conservation, biodiversity, and sustainability practices, and animal deities.
