An exquisitely unique retelling of the origin of jolly, old St.
Nick.
Volume 1: The Muse
It's the one story of magic and wonder everyone thinks they know--yet
the most epic part of the tale remains shrouded in mystery. What
actually happened 1,800 years ago to transform a starry-eyed young
priest named Nicholas into a winter wizard destined to circle the world
on a sleigh of hope? Now, the secret is revealed: She happened. This is
the story of Amara, one of the legendary Muses of the House of
Polyhymnia. Sent by the Muses to a small town in ancient Lycia, Amara
sees something special in Nicholas's kindness and generosity. As she
prepares to defend humankind against the Kobaloi, creatures who feed on
fear and chaos, she senses this young man may be the partner she needs
to stand against their growing power. But binding her fate and her magic
to Saint Nicholas will mean breaking the laws of the Muses--and risking
their eternal wrath.
