A Chilling Tale of Survival, Legacy, and Ancient Malevolence

As the first snowflake settled, it whispered secrets of a winter tale waiting to unfold.

This is the haunting opening line of Echoes of Frost, a gripping tale set on the frozen, distant planet of Glacius Prime. A world where winters stretch for three Earth years, the air freezes with stories of survival and ancient darkness, and humanity’s spirit clashes against the icy grip of malevolence.

Welcome to Frosthaven, a remote settlement nestled between towering glaciers, where generations of settlers have endured the biting cold and the ominous legend of Moros, the Winter Wraith. What begins as a cautionary tale shared by the firelight soon becomes a harrowing reality for the inhabitants of this frozen world, where tradition, unity, and resilience are the only shields against the creeping shadows.

A World Forged in Frost

Glacius Prime is as much a character in this story as the people who inhabit it. The planet’s desolate beauty—endless glaciers, shimmering ice caverns, and skies alive with alien auroras—sets the stage for a tale that is both breathtaking and bone-chilling. Humanity crash-landed here centuries ago, transforming their broken spacecraft into the foundation of Frosthaven. Over time, the settlers adapted, crafting homes from ice and forming a unique bond with their unforgiving environment.

But Glacius Prime is not merely a backdrop for survival. It harbors secrets older than humanity’s arrival—secrets that whisper through the wind and crystallize in the frost. The planet itself seems to breathe, its every exhalation hinting at the spectral presence of Moros, a being born from despair and sustained by fear.

A Legacy Passed Down

At the heart of Echoes of Frost lies the generational struggle to preserve a fragile balance. Through the eyes of Frosthaven’s elders and their descendants, the reader experiences a powerful story of sacrifice and resilience. Elsaar, the wise elder of Frosthaven, begins the tale by recounting the legend of Moros—a spectral wraith born from the collective suffering of the dead. Bound centuries ago by the desperate rituals of the settlers, Moros has remained at the edges of existence, waiting for the moment when Frosthaven falters.

As winters come and go, the story follows the lineage of Frosthaven’s leaders, from Elsaar to his great-granddaughter Lyra, and beyond. Each generation faces the daunting task of upholding the pact that keeps Moros at bay, ensuring that unity and tradition endure in the face of unimaginable cold. But what happens when complacency sets in? When the legends of old are dismissed as mere myths? When the Winter Wraith’s whispers grow louder?

The Rise of a Heroine

Lyra’s story forms the emotional core of the novel. A young girl thrust into a role of leadership, she must summon unimaginable courage to save her people from Moros, who grows stronger with every soul it consumes. Her journey from a wide-eyed child hearing the legends of her ancestors to a fearless leader facing the darkness head-on is as inspiring as it is harrowing. The bond she forges with her two sons, Eirik and Alden, serves as a poignant reminder that the fight against the shadows is never an individual endeavor but a collective responsibility.

A Warning Ignored

In its climactic chapters, Echoes of Frost leaps forward to a future where Frosthaven’s descendants face a fateful choice. When a spacecraft from Earth arrives, offering a chance to return to humanity’s ancestral home, some seize the opportunity, leaving behind the frozen world that has been their prison and sanctuary. But Moros, now stronger than ever, takes advantage of the weakened village, extinguishing every last life and setting its sights on Earth. The chilling finale leaves readers breathless as the Winter Wraith prepares to take its darkness beyond the icy expanse of Glacius Prime.

Why You Should Read Echoes of Frost
