A woman on the run. A crew of Viking mercenaries. A forbidden romance. And the secret which threatens them all . . . Silla Nordvig is running for her life. The queen of Iseldur has sent warriors to bring Silla to Sunnav�k, where death awaits her. When her father is killed, his last words set Silla on a perilous quest: travel the treacherous Road of Bones - a thousand-mile stretch haunted by warbands, creatures of darkness, and a mysterious murderer - and go to Kopa, where a shield-house awaits her. After barely surviving the first stretch of road, a desperate Silla sneaks into a supply wagon belonging to the notorious Bloodaxe Crew. To make it to Kopa, she must win overAxe Eyes, the brooding leader of the Crew, while avoiding the Wolf, his distractingly handsome right-hand man. But the queen's ruthless assassin has other plans and hunts Silla obsessively. Will Silla make it safely to Kopa? Or will she fall prey to the perils of the Road of Bones? Set in an immersive volcanic world blending fairy tale with Vikings, The Road of Bones by Demi Winters leads you on an adrenaline-fueled chase through a slow-building enemies-to-lovers romance - perfect for fans of Throne of Glass and Fourth Wing. Continue Silla's journey in Kingdom of Claw, the second heart-stopping book in the Ashen romantasy series. ****Readers are RAVING about The Road of Bones . . .
