A new series from the author of The Raven Rings trilogy - Siri Pettersen!
Juva knows all about blood readers. Praised for their Sight, they are nothing but swindlers, preying on people’s fears for power and profit. Born by blood readers herself, she knows only too well, and she has vowed never to become one of them.
But when her family is threatened by vardari, the eerie lasting ones, who never age, Juva is entangled in a desperate hunt for the blood readers’ legacy: a dark secret that once changed the world, and may do so again.
In order to survive, she has to confront the terrifying childhood memory she fought to forget.

Read full series description
Set against a backdrop of crumbling cities and icy landscapes, the Vardari series unfolds a dark tale of vengeance, self-discovery, and the lingering echoes of a forgotten war. At its heart is Juva, a blood reader caught between the weight of her legacy and the rebellion within her. In a world where the bloodlines of power and immortality run deep, her journey will take her through the murky depths of betrayal and desperate alliances. But as the truth of the vardari—immortal beings with the power to change fate itself—unravels, so too do the rules of the game, pushing Juva into a conflict that could either destroy or redeem everything she holds dear.
With a world inspired by Norse mythology and tinged with eerie mystery, Vardari is more than just a fantasy series; it's a raw exploration of what happens when power transcends time, and the choices made by those who hold it ripple across generations. Dark, atmospheric, and full of peril, this series is not for the faint of heart. Juva’s journey will challenge everything she thought she knew about herself, and the price of knowledge may prove too great to bear.
Through lush, atmospheric world-building and complex character arcs, the Vardari series captures the essence of epic fantasy while grounding its fantastical elements in personal, human struggles. Themes of power, identity, and loyalty clash with the harsh realities of a world where the past refuses to stay buried and where the present may not be as it seems.
Step into the Vardari saga, where every step brings you closer to a truth that could shatter everything—or save it.
