Shadow of the North

Shadow of the North

Shadow of the North

Joseph A. Altsheler

The northern wilderness has grown darker, and the shadows hold new terrors. Return to the world of "The Hunters of the Hills" where our characters venture deeper into the blood-soaked frontier of the French and Indian War. The forest trails teem with danger: French regulars, Canadian rangers, and native warriors all hungry for scalps and glory. As war between empires erupts across the mountains and valleys, these hunters become the hunted, and survival demands a courage some may not possess. Altsheler renders the 18th-century frontier with raw intensity, capturing the brutal mathematics of a conflict where alliances shifted like morning mist and no settler was truly safe. This is historical adventure at its most immersive, pulling no punches while delivering the pulse-pounding action that made Altsheler one of America's most beloved writers of frontier fiction. For readers who finished "The Hunters of the Hills" hungry for more, the shadows are waiting.
