Wolf of the South

Emilio, the Wolf of the South, is feared as Eterna's most dangerous assassin. In truth, he is the slave of a sadistic master, trapped in a hopeless, abusive existence from which there is no escape.

All of a sudden, he is given an incredible opportunity—to build a new life for himself in the past. Emilio accepts and wakes up in an icy cold and war-torn ancient kingdom. It is an awful place with terrible inhabitants, and Morayn, their young, snotty, and irascible queen, seems the worst of all.

Reluctantly, Emilio joins Morayn in her desperate fight for her kingdom and soon realizes that his most secret dreams could come true. But will the intelligence and professional skills of an assassin be enough to save the land, his new family, and the woman he loves?

In Isa Day's touching time travel fantasy series The Stairs of Eternity seemingly lost (adult) protagonists are given a second chance. To do so, they have to travel to long gone times and forgotten worlds and overcome great danger. Their courage is rewarded with love and a community that takes them in.

The suspenseful yet heart-warming stories invite you to dream. They offer intelligent, fairytale-like and magical high fantasy for adults with multi-faceted protagonists and carefully crafted worlds. Other ingredients include time travel, a mysterious guild of murderers with a sinister master, romance, humor and -- as always in Isa Day's books -- lovable (magical) animals.

All books of the series The Stairs of Eternity are self-contained in one or two volumes, have different protagonists and can be read on their own. Readers who remain faithful to the series will discover larger contexts over the course of the books and meet beloved characters again.

The volume "Wolf of the South" is self-contained. It is set in a Nordic-influenced fantasy world and tells of guilt and atonement and the courage to take on seemingly insurmountable dangers for the good of the community.
