In the troubled city of Strand, the City Watch and Governor's Guard struggle to fend off the criminal empires who rule their streets. Between the corruption, smuggling, underground slaving, mass larceny and a rebellious group attempting to usurp the throne, Guardsman Eirik's life shows no signs of getting any easier. Yet the arrival of group seeking a stolen artifact heralds a coming disaster for the already rotten city. Uncertain if he can trust his own people, Eirik has little choice but to throw in his lot with two enigmatic varl and a country boy. Toss in a conman seeking vengeance and a slave-turned-bodyguard with an elusive agenda, and Eirik has his work cut out for him. But even if his questionable allies and the hordes of eager thugs don't kill him, the plot they discover threatens to rip Strand apart. And may destroy the fragile varl-human alliance that maintains the peace with their giant neighbors in the north... The Gift of Hadrborg is an action-packed prequel novel to Stoic Studio's critically acclaimed The Banner Saga Part 1, which was funded through Kickstarter to wild success.

No city in the world has more strange sightings and unexplained mysteries per capita than San Cicaro. So when cub reporter Olivia Murphy strolls into her first official interview, even she knows better than to jump at every wild rumor. Yet her unlikely source opens a Pandora's box of leads, many of which tie into a greater mystery. What do bees and a rash of disappearances at the zoo have in common? Are there parallels between uncanny pigeons and a fiery pet salamander? Could there be a connection between the myths of feral dogs and an entire city block gone mad? And just who are the Sisters of the Seasons? Despite Olivia's skepticism, cracks are spreading in the enigma of San Cicaro. The secrets have begun to unravel, for better or worse. For while humans may lie for fear of being labeled insane, Mother Nature plays no such games.
