Echo of Fate: A Saga of Fate and Fire (Book 1)
by Ian Hughes

What if memory could be stolen-not by time, but by gods?

In a world where Norse mythology collides with modern archaeology, Doctor Harper Lane unearths more than relics-she awakens a forgotten war between fate and fire. Alongside her companions-a brilliant linguist with a cursed past and a sardonic academic-Harper stumbles upon a torc buried in the crypts beneath Véornir. It should have been myth. It wasn't.

As ancient forces stir and the Veil of Aesir closes in, Harper must reckon with burning visions, stolen histories, and a destiny that demands blood. With every step, the torc tightens its grip, binding her not to power but to memory, to sacrifice, and to a storm older than gods.

Set across Shetland, Norway, and Iceland, Echo of Fate is the first book in an epic trilogy blending mythic fantasy, queer love, and apocalyptic reckoning. It is a story for those who resist silence, for the ones whose scars remember.

One torc binds. One torc breaks. One torc burns.
