Overview

The Crow & the Cosmic Collector Book V in the War of the Veil Series by SJ Morris As the War for the Veil intensifies, the battlefield undergoes a most insolent and perilous transformation. Freya Valdis, the Kráka and fated Crow Queen, has only just begun to master the terrifying psychic powers of her ancient bloodline. Alongside her bonded warrior, Gunnar Rask, she has forged the Dyad. A union of preternatural might designed to be the ultimate shield against the primordial horrors that threaten our very existence. Having withstood gods, dragons, the draugr legions of the underworld, and every mythical creature in between, they seek but a moment's respite to solidify their hard-won love and claim the quiet future they have been promised. Alas, peace is a commodity in short supply. A new adversary has emerged from the dark shadows of the global economy, an entity that disdains the vulgarity of evil and honor. He is the Acquirer, a primordial force whose currency is not gold, but the very essence of enchantment. To him, magic is merely an asset class, and the Veil itself, an undervalued enterprise ripe for a hostile takeover. To assess his investment, he dispatches the quintessential corporate raiders: the trickster god Loki and his lupine scion, Fenrir, to stage a spectacular, terrorizing audit upon the city of New York. Now, the Dyad finds itself in a contest for which no ancient prophecy could have prepared them. Their bond, once a weapon, is now being appraised as the ultimate prize. Freya and Gunnar, with the help of their chosen family and a host of gods, Seers, and fated warriors, must navigate a gilded labyrinth of existential threats, where ancient powers are auctioned to the highest bidder and their every move is scrutinized by a world finally forced to see the supernatural spectacle. To prevail, they must leverage a value their enemy's ledgers can never quantify. The stakes have been recalibrated. The cost of failure is no longer merely death, but the complete liquidation of reality. The War of the Veil moves into its most dangerous stage. Will Freya be able to control the elemental forces she's been given, or will the weight of eternity and the overwhelming responsibility for every living being on the planet overwhelm her to the point of destruction?
