Chronicles of Yrsa
Ysra: The Undead Huntress - Chronicles of Yrsa Book One
She died hunting monsters. Death didn't stop her. Yrsa was the greatest huntress her clan had ever known—until the night the draugr came and she fell protecting the ones she loved. But in a world where the old gods still walk and death is negotiable, falling in battle was just the beginning. Yrsa wakes in a body that no longer breathes, bound by ancient magic to hunt the very creatures that killed her. The undead that plague the northern lands fear her now more than they ever feared the living woman. But the magic that sustains her demands a price, and with each kill, Yrsa feels herself becoming less human and more like the monsters she destroys. The first book in the Chronicles of Yrsa is a grimdark tale of vengeance, sacrifice, and the terrible cost of becoming the weapon your people need. For readers who want their fantasy brutal, their heroines dangerous, and their victories paid for in blood.
