Excerpt
Even from this far away, the great boar was enormous, terrifying. His snout wrinkled the slash of his maw, dark red and dripping slaver. The ridge of his back rose impossibly over the stunted trees of the marsh. No mist obscured the great cliff of his shoulder. And most terrifying was the glimpse of one great red eye, flashing fierce as he twisted his head to chuff at his back. Miri tore her eyes away from him, as he started to spin, first one way, then the other, slashing at his own sides with tusks the size of trees.
From The Tears of Ishtar, coming this fall.
