Description
A novella from award-winning author Katherine Starbird.
"A captivating tale of Norse Gods, sea witches and a hero in denial.”
In this riff on classic Norse myths, a young sailor is on a quest to circumnavigate the world when an aging siren's song draws him into a city marina. Soon he forgets his voyage and the animosity for his absentee father that fueled it as he is assimilated into the group of men who adore Reenie Gyse. She grows younger and stronger as the young man struggles to retain his identity.
Reenie Gyse is a coming of age story about a modern-day Viking on a quest for his soul. Based on Scandinavian Norse myths and combining Nordic mythology with the classic tale of the siren's song, this fantasy novella creates a new mythology for young adults.
“Sometimes it takes a supernatural intervention to show us who we really are.”
