An Apprentice to Elves

With An Apprentice to Elves, Sarah Monette and Elizabeth Bear return with the third book in their epic fantasy series, the Iskryne trilogy.
The trilogy began with A Companion to Wolves, and continued in The Tempering of Men. This novel picks up the story of Alfgyfa, a young woman who has been raised in the Wolfhall by her father Isolfr, who is the human leader of the queen-wolf Viridechtis' pack, and was the protagonist of the first book.
The warrior culture of Iskryne forbids many things to women—and most especially it forbids them bonding to one of the giant telepathic trelwolves. But as her father was no ordinary boy, Alfgyfa is no ordinary girl. Her father has long planned to send his daughter to Tin, a matriarch among the elves who live nearby, to be both apprentice and ambassador, and now she is of age to go.

      The third entry in this historical fantasy collaboration (A Companion to Wolves; The Tempering of Men) is the story of Alfgyfa, a young woman in a warrior culture. Like her father, Alfgyfa won't let cultural mores get in the way of her destiny and sets off to become apprentice and human ambassador to the elvish matriarch Tin. Heavily influenced by Viking myth and culture, this series will appeal to both teen and adult readers, especially those who enjoyed Joe Abercrombie's Half a King.--JM
