In an America shaped by more than just human hands, Folk rangers and magical creatures wage hidden battles that will determine the fate of a growing nation. From the blood-soaked grounds of the Alamo to the marble halls of Washington D.C., from monster-haunted seas to fairy-touched forests, their struggles intertwine with pivotal moments of American history.
When the Water Maiden Dela loses her memories to dark Elven magic, she embarks on a quest that brings her face-to-face with legendary figures like Sam Houston and Edgar Allan Poe. Meanwhile, the mighty Captain Stormalong hunts a fearsome Kraken across storm-tossed oceans, and shape-shifting monsters walk among settlers on the Western frontier.
As the Civil War looms, ancient powers seek control over the expanding American territories. The Elves of the northern forests clash with Spanish Duendes of the south, each seeking powerful magical artifacts left behind by the lost civilization of Cibola. Only a handful of heroes-human and monster alike-stand between these otherworldly forces and their plans to dominate the continent and bend it to their will.
Rich with historical detail and folklore from diverse cultures, this sweeping epic reimagines key moments of American history through a lens of magic and mythology. Fans of historical fantasy will relish its complex world-building, rich characters, and intricate plot where the supernatural and historical intersect in thrilling, unexpected ways. It's a must-read for those who enjoy tales that blend adventure, history, and the timeless battle between good and evil.
