Shield of Sparrows (Shield of Sparrows, #1)

by Devney Perry

It was written that the old gods, Ama and Oda, created Calandra’s animals as gifts to humans.

The Six crafted predators in the image of Calandra’s animals, though their variations were far more beautiful. Far more powerful. Far more deadly. They birthed monsters to serve as a reminder to humans and animals alike that we were fragile and insignificant. And there was no monster more feared than the crux.

The Guardian. A man rumored to be more vicious and deadly than any creature crafted by the gods.
