This title offers a stunning mix of magic, adventure, and fantasy that will have you hooked from the very first page. In a land where gods walk the hills and goddesses rise from rivers, lakes, and springs, veteran caravan-guard Holla-Sayan stops to help an abandoned child and a dying dog. The girl, though, is the incarnation of Attalissa, goddess of Lissavakail, and her dog not a canine companion but a shape-changing guardian spirit. Possessed and driven half-mad by the shape-changing Blackdog, Holla-Sayan flees across the world, trailing necromancers, treachery, massacres, rebellions, and even dead gods in his wake. But an even greater force hunts Holla-Sayan and Attalissa, one that could spell their doom...
K.V. Johnasen is a successful author, editor, freelance journalist, and illustrator.
"I'm hooked. The mix of magic, Tibetan-style religion, and Harold-Lamb-style adventure is pretty addicting." JAMES ENGE, World Fantasy Award nominated author of Blood of Ambrose and The Wolf Age "Interesting and absorbing; Blackdog takes as its heart, and its strength, a subject that most fantasy writers shy away from--the Gods themselves." TOM LLOYD, Author of The Twilight Reign series
