Check out the fantastical wintry cover and be transported to a different world, one of magic, a quest, the meeting of humans and monsters, below. Then, discover a little bit about Fangs of The Frost and a little of what you can expect within those adventurous pages…
Being sent on a quest to save an entire city and granted the city’s full resources is a grand honor. Unless that city is Xin, with no resources to speak of.
A magical secret from Xin’s past threatens the city’s future, and Darin must lead a rag-tag group to a frigid city at the end of the world to save it. Their dilapidated old trade schooner may be haunted, but it survived conversion into the world’s first harpy aircraft carrier. And more importantly, it was cheap.
Can a misfit crew of humans and monsters overcome creepy creatures, mysterious magical phenomena, and the whims of the Empress of the Ice? How does a couple get alone time on a ship, when one of them is the size of the ship? And will Darin and Rinloh finally put the naughty in nautical?
Join Arvia’s most eclectic heroic duo for adventures on the high seas! Caution: may contain questionable relationship advice, gratuitous human + nonhuman cuddle sequences, and/or singing.
If you like what you see here. If it’s whet your appetite to delve into the land where there’s Fangs of the Frost, or even consider it as an early buy for a Christmas present, look out for it on 14th October 2025.
