Oath and ash: 1

Bol

Banished from their homeland and stripped of their honour, a fractured Viking clan is cast adrift with nothing but their weapons, their wounded pride, and the oath that binds them. When a violent storm drives them onto the shores of an uncharted island, survival becomes their only law.The land is rich. The forests are deep. The soil promises a new beginning.But something else is here.Something watching.As the clan struggles to build a settlement from the ashes of exile, hunters in the dark begin to close in - silent, intelligent, and unlike anything born of this world. Shadows move where no creature should be. Bodies vanish without a trace. And every night, the unseen predators grow bolder.Erik, heir to a fallen line, must hold his people together as fear tears through the camp. Old rivalries ignite. Trust fractures. And the island's secrets whisper of a threat far older - and far deadlier - than any enemy they have ever faced.To survive, the clan must become more than warriors.They must become a people worth saving.But on this island, the hunters choose who lives... and who is claimed.Oath and Ash is the gripping first book in The Exiled Saga - a dark, atmospheric blend of Viking grit, survival horror, and mythic fantasy where every choice has a cost, and every shadow hides a predator.
