About this listen
A sweeping tale of clashing cultures, warring gods, and forbidden love: In AD 1000, a young Inuit shaman and a Viking warrior become unwilling allies as war breaks out between their peoples and their gods - one that will determine the fate of them all.
"There is a very old story, rarely told, of a wolf that runs into the ocean and becomes a whale."
Born with the soul of a hunter and the spirit of the wolf, Omat is destined to follow in her grandfather's footsteps - invoking the spirits of the land, sea, and sky to protect her people.
But the gods have stopped listening, and Omat's family is starving. Alone at the edge of the world, hope is all they have left.
Desperate to save them, Omat journeys across the icy wastes, fighting for survival with every step. When she meets a Viking warrior and his strange new gods, they set in motion a conflict that could shatter her world...or save it.
PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

A tale steeped in tradition and culture but yet is still and new and original story
I really enjoyed this tale, thoroughly enjoyed the beautiful narration and the excellent descriptions of the scenes throughout this book as well as the clashing of cultures and the spiritual connections.
Getting the stories and a look into the lives of lesser told cultures like the Inuits was so fantastic, some darker parts of these cultures are always hard to listen too but that is just the way the world was and is, no sense in sugar coating things
Thank you for the story.
