Of Wolves & Winter: A Tale of Rakki Silverthorne

As a slave, the boy had not even as much as a name. The only thing that he did have was his life, short and hard as it had been thus far. But the wolf was a creature not moved by human pity, and in seeking for its prey, intended to take away even that from the boy. So as his life flashes before his eyes, will he accept his fate or fight for the slimmest chance to change it?

Aware only of his past in the most fleeting of fragmented memories, the nameless boy has never done more than survive and follow in the wake of his master, the exiled warrior known as Kjartan. But now that the small mercenary band the grim fighter leads has agreed a price to hunt down a murderous wolf with a taste for human flesh, circumstances conspire to change both the way he sees the world and even the boy himself.
