Siv & the blood moon

the long version

"Covered in blood, wandering down into the abyss, Siv suddenly awakens, drenched in sweat, wondering why she cannot shake this recurring nightmare. Vulnerable and slight, Siv, a fledgling dwarf, is caught in the middle of an ages-long struggle with vindictive and sinister forces that threaten her existence and way of life. Will these conflicting forces lead to the failure and collapse of Siv? Or will Siv possess the strength of character to respond to the pressure in a way that produces greatness within and salvation for her generation? A prophecy scribed 735 years before her birth foretells of Siv's trials against insurmountable odds, which will unfold in an epic showdown under the omen of the Blood Moon!" -- back cover.
