    About this series

    "WOW WOW WOW! - I didn't think this series could get better, but LP just blew my mind!" - Tricia, Goodreads

     

    Once upon a time, there was a desperate princess, a scythe-wielding huntsman, and a band of Viking horsemen.

     

    Princess Thora, youngest daughter of the infamous Queen of Norseland, has only known life behind the walls of Winterwood Keep. Shut away from the outside world, Thora awaits the day she is called upon to fulfill her royal duty. When that day arrives, and Thora learns she will marry the kingdom's most sinister chieftain, she must decide between her freedom, and the dangers stalking the wild winter lands, or her obligation to her kingdom and confronting the evils that lurk the castle corridors she calls home. 

     

    It's not long before Thora learns nothing is quite what it seems, and with an unlikely ally at her side, she embarks on a journey that will alter the fabric of Norseland forever.


    Prepare to feel the kiss of winter on your skin as you're windswept in this heart-pounding, swoon-worthy Norse-inspired Snow White retelling.

    If you enjoy love/hate relationships, secret identities, and reluctant heroines on whirlwind adventures, this is the tale for you.

      "Gripping, gutting, and beautifully gothic." - Lindsey Sparks, bestselling author of the Echo Trilogy A broody landowner. A feisty governess armed with a fire-poker. A mysterious manor beyond a gritty, reimagined London.   Centuries ago, the skies turned black, and for 300 years, Londoners survived in the dank, underground tunnels of the city. Until one day, a stranger from a faraway land offered to save them. Though it wasn't without cost . . . and he has come to collect.   When Selene is taken to Master Blackburn's infamous estate, she fears she and the orphans she's sworn to protect will meet a gruesome end, like so many others before them. But the beastly landowner is not all there is to fear, and Selene soon learns nothing in Briarwood is as it seems.   Travel beyond the City of Ruin, through the secret passageways and haunted woods, to a land shrouded in secrets in this atmospheric retelling of Jane Eyre and Beauty and the Beast.   This is the first book in the richly imagined Ruined Lands, a collection of historical fantasy and dystopian fairy tale retellings. Ruined Lands is a Forgotten Lands sister series.   RUINED LANDS: City of Ruin Sea of Storms Land of Fury FORGOTTEN LANDS sister series: Dust and Shadow Earth and Ember Tide and Tempest Borne of Sand and Scorn (prequel novella)

    Lindsey Pogue

    Lindsey Pogue has always been a little quirky. When she was a kid, she helped establish a bug hospital on her elementary school soccer field (none of the insects survived, unfortunately) and as a teenager she preferred writing to being very social. She wrote her first new adult manuscript in high school, and she’s been writing stories of love and friendship, history, and adventure ever since. When she’s not plotting her next storyline or dreaming up new, brooding characters, she’s usually wrapped in blankets watching her favorite action flicks, reading, eating Mexican food, or going on road trips with her own leading man. They live in the Napa Valley with their rescue cat, Beast. www.lindseypogue.com
