A mountainous thundering bull breaks up battling tribesmen, summoning
three struggling youths, as an insidious unseen enemy turns tribes against
tribes—pitting rich against poor, sons against fathers, and men against gods.
Its insatiable hunger for division threatens to plunge mankind into a dystopian
realm ruled by man-eating wolves.
A miraculous seven-headed horse, a symbol of unity, soars from the East,
assembling the three youths from disparate lands into a journey of
self-discovery. There Sunu the Saxon, Rufus the Roman, and Keresaspa the
Sarmatian must overcome pride, aversion, and unforgiveness; there they must
learn from historical heroes, philosophers, and the gods that strengthen them
to battle the unseen monster and its rising wolfmen.
Fated to part ways to face the demons at home, Sunu, Rufus, and Keresaspa must
reunite as they bring divided peoples together to fight the source tearing
everyone apart. They must heed the divine wisdom of the seven-headed horse and
justly wield the seven magic weapons they’ve mysteriously been given to
overcome the unseen enemy and understand the higher purpose of the mountainous
thundering bull.
Reviews:
“Readers will be intrigued...Hermannson will draw in action fans...Sunu’s
character arc, while epic in scope, is charming and fun; [the horse] often
brings the hero back to Earth...There’s also an engaging secondary character in
the warrior Keresaspa, who sees through Sunu’s callow attempts to woo her...The
hero learns much through experience, however, and further exploits would be
welcome...An enjoyable, well-researched historical adventure.” —Kirkus
“This novel will be perfect for lovers of complex world building, strong historical and mythological themes…The writing style is very descriptive and detailed, creating clear imagery of not just people, but animals, places, and things! There are many deeply philosophical discussions throughout the novel also, that’s create meaningful points of change for the characters…I see so much good in it that I can definitely see others loving this series!” —Goodreads reviewer
"I was hooked from the first page and glad I was able to read this, it had that historical fiction element that I was looking for and thought it worked together in this universe. Hildebrand Hermannson writes a strong story and I’m glad I got to read this." —NetGalley reviewer
"The Fate of our Union was a
very interesting story! It took me a minute to get into it, but once I did I
was hooked! The mix of elements of almost a Native American tribal theme and
Greek mythology was very well done. I enjoyed the story, and the plot line.
Thank you Mr. Hermannson for letting me read your incredible story!" —NetGalley

Top 5 favorite Video Games.
I grew up loving martial arts at the height of its
popularity and was fascinated by ninjas. No surprise, one of my favorite video
games was Ninja Gaiden. I remember spending hours climbing walls, throwing
stars, and executing other stealthy ninja attacks. I grew up playing
Castlevania, and when Symphony of the Night was released, I thought it
was the best game ever: Alucard with his long white hair and red cloak,
morphing into mist or a bat while running through cathedrals with books flying
from the shelves. I have vivid memories of the first time I discovered
Alucard's transformation abilities, and it was a gaming moment I'll never
forget. Gauntlet, a multiplayer game, was a blast to play with my friends. I
was always Thor the warrior, fighting beside Thyra the valkyrie, Questor the
elf, and Merlin the wizard. I remember the camaraderie that filled the room
whenever my friends and I played. The ultimate gaming experience came when I
played the action role-playing game Fable, where one can choose to be good or
evil and make life choices, from going on a mission to getting a tattoo (great
soundtrack). I recall the excitement of making my first moral decision in the
game and its impact on the story. Skyrim, a game where one can design every
detail of a character, was another role-playing game I truly enjoyed for its
decision-making options.
