Herja, Devastation is a tale of myth and mortality, wielder and implement, love and destiny.

 

Free-verse poetry combines with short prose in the style of an Eddic tale modernised.

* * *

The legend of Valkyrie breathes, as Herja, Devastation, once wronged, aims her mortal agent at her enemies.

Her man bears this tale of vengeance in service to a higher, eminently more noble being. He is her assassin and tool, and she is his destiny and dignity.

In the dirty business of death on demand, a purity of purpose lights the path as he seeks questions, provides answers and justice on her word.

This blending of literary forms creates a unique nouveau noir style for the 21st Century. Do you dare to tread the dark side?

Industry Reviews

5/5
The cover alone was enough to excite me to look inside. I'm glad I did.
It felt like a wild ride even though it was underplayed. I wish I knew his name.
Her man, perhaps, and I'll remember him. Maybe every time I see a darker shadow in the shady places.
I loved this book. I don't know whether to call it poetry or prose, and I'd never heard of Eddic tales, but if that's your thing, or you want to feel the subtle menace, albeit from a loving hand.
There are few times when I don't know how to react to the way a book makes me feel, but this is one of those times.
This is a book I will reread and remember for a long, long time.
A keeper.
