The Ragnar Stormbringer Tales, Volume I, contains the first three novellas released in the collection on eBook formats.  These novellas include Depths of Night, When the Cold Breathes, and Altar of Gods.

The novellas in the Ragnar Stormbringer collection will continue to be released and made available individually on eBook formats and the compendium is only being released in a print edition.  Print compendiums are a great way to make the Ragnar Stormbringer tales available to readers who do not have eReaders or prefer print formats.

Here are the synopsis of the three novellas included in this exciting new compendium!

Depths of Night: After a harrowing end to a long sea journey, the famed northern warrior Ragnar Stormbringer and a force of warriors step ashore in the lands of the Petranni, a tribal people known for their workings in silver and gold. The search for plunder takes a sharp turn when homesteads, villages, and temple sites show signs of being recently abandoned.

When it is discovered that the Petranni have all taken refuge within a massive stronghold, Ragnar and the others soon fall under the shadow of an ancient, deadly adversary. Wielding his legendary war axe Raven Caller, Ragnar finds his strength tested like never before.

When the Cold Breathes:  There are times when the cold breathes.

Settlers from Ragnar Stormbringer’s homelands are forging a new world in the far north, building villages where the icy lash of the winds is a reminder of the dangers lurking within a harsh wilderness.

A season of great peril has fallen upon them. A fearsome predator stalks and hunts the settlers in the deep snows. As the deaths mount and terror spreads among the populace, Ragnar’s help is sought to confront the unknown menace.

Taking up his legendary axe Raven Caller, Ragnar heads into the falling snows. He will soon find that the myths told in the region have more than a little truth dwelling within them.

What lies in the cold embrace of death and darkness can awaken, breathe, and gaze through eyes of spectral light.

When the Cold Breathes is a stand-alone novella that is part of the Ragnar Stormbringer tales!

Altar of Gods:  Ragnar Stormbringer and a large band of warriors from his homelands find themselves stranded within a mysterious, dangerous land.

Trapped, with no way home, and pitted against a fearsome chieftain’s desire to see all of the northern warriors offered to bloodthirsty gods, Ragnar must call upon every bit of inner and outer strength that he possesses just to survive another day; much less seek a way back to his homelands.

Altar of Gods is a stand-alone novella that is part of the Ragnar Stormbringer Tales.

Seventh Star Press Announces New Collections of Rayden Valkyrie and Ragnar Stormbringer Tales by Stephen Zimmer!

Seventh Star Press is proud to announce exciting new collections of both Rayden Valkyrie and Ragnar Stormbringer stories by award-winning author Stephen Zimmer, with individual tales to be released monthly in eBook formats!

The first of these new titles will be the Ragnar Stormbringer novella “Depths of Night”, set for release at the end of March.  “Depths of Night” represents the first Ragnar Stormbringer tale to be published!

The stand-alone tales will give readers a chance to further explore the world featured in the Rayden Valkyrie novels Heart of a Lion and Thunder Horizon.  Releases will include both short stories and novellas.

Stephen had this to say about the new titles:

“While I work on new installments in series such as Fires in Eden and get ready for the release of my first YA novel Dream of the Navigator, I wanted to be sure that my readers had several new tales to look forward to in 2018.

I have written four brand new Rayden Valkyrie short stories and two Ragnar Stormbringer novellas that will be the first of a new batch of releases planned for a pace of about one new title a month.  Readers can look forward to a diverse range of settings for these adventures, which take place at various points in the lifetimes of these two heroic characters.  They do not need to be read in any particular order, either.

Rayden and Ragnar are two very different characters, and I am confident sword and sorcery and fantasy fans will have a great experience adventuring with each of these heroic characters.  Each of these stories involve different strengths and challenges with regard to Rayden and Ragnar, and I have a lot of fun bringing them to life in writing.

The Ragnar Stormbringer character came to life when I developed the storyline for the pilot and accompanying series for Rayden Valkyrie: Saga of a Lionheart. He is portrayed wonderfully by Brock O’Hurn in the independent TV Pilot that we shot in the summer of 2017, but as of yet the Ragnar character has not been featured in my published literary work.  These new tales give me a chance to begin telling Ragnar’s story, in addition to telling more of Rayden’s.

Even better, there is a whole lot more where these came from!”
