Travels in the Dark
by Jordan Loyal Short
Series: The Dreadbound Ode (#3)
Expected Publication: March 3, 2022
Genre: Epic Fantasy
Cover design:Â Deranged Doctor Design
Lyssa is going to the Dead Place and everyone she killed will be waiting.
As the Hidden One’s twisted plan to resurrect the Deep Gods unfolds, the only way to stop him is a secret buried in the land of death.
But Lyssa has not given up. If the Deep Gods can return, so can she.
Can Lyssa find a way back? Can she delve into hell’s darkest corners and emerge with the lore to stop the Deep Gods’ rise? Or will she become a lost soul, like so many of those she loved in life?
Ancient horrors will wake. Skalds will sing. And a blind seer will see the shadows gather.
Lyssa Pedersten has tasted poison, and hell had best beware.
Cover Notes:
I love the vibe of the cover! It portrays magic and anguish in the art. It forebodes change and a journey that will likely lead to the character learning a lot about themselves and those around them. The setting by what looks like a tombstone and the beautiful colors in the backdrop make this an eye catching cover! I am in awe of the artist and this would easily be ‘bought-based-on-the-cover’ buy for me! 🙂
Read on to learn about first book and see how amazing that cover is!

The Skald’s Black Verse
(Book 1 of the Series)
An ancient evil has come to collect its sacrifice.
When a soldier’s grisly murder sparks unrest in the tiny hamlet of Skolja, Brohr’s past marks him as the prime suspect. On the run from the Tyrianite Legion, he uncovers an unthinkable secret about the raging spirit that haunts him, and the pact his grandfather struck long ago.
Soon a dire omen appears in the sky and the hunt for Brohr intensifies.
While the brutal occupation of his village devolves into bloodshed, Brohr must unlock the secret magic in his blood and lead the Norn in a last-ditch rebellion.
Behind it all an ancient horror pulls the strings of conqueror and conquered alike. Can Brohr untangle the hidden plot and unite his people before disaster rains down from the sky above?
