Ariessy of midgard
Ariessy of Midgard By L.B. Arthur
Silver Book Award Winner (2021) – Literary Titan | Age 13+
“A fast-paced fantasy adventure with a strong, relatable protagonist. Highly recommended — loved it! - Wishing Shelf Editorial Review.
Seventeen-year-old Ariessy Taylor has spent years hiding the truth: she was born into the ancient Seivar line of sorcerers, guardians of Earth’s hidden magical realms. Her power has always stirred beneath the surface—unwanted, unpredictable, and far too dangerous to trust. But when wolf-shifters from Nidavellir uncover a secret buried deep in her bloodline, Ariessy’s carefully guarded world begins to unravel.
As her father’s illness worsens and ancient enemies rise, Ariessy is drawn into a conflict shaped by the old magic of two worlds—where Norse echoes and British legends linger beneath the surface. With danger closing in and her past refusing to stay buried, she must face the legacy she never asked for—and a future she can’t escape.
Ariessy of Midgard is a richly woven fantasy adventure blending Norse and British mythology. Perfect for readers who crave slow-burn magic, shifter intrigue, and heroines caught between duty and desire. Emotional, immersive, and quietly powerful—this is a story for anyone who’s ever felt out of place, and been forced to choose what matters most.
