Dedicated to

My agent, Meredith Bernstein, and my editor, Kate Seaver, for believing in me. Thank you.

ACKNOWLEDGMENTS
 

Thank you to my beloved Samwise. You are my joy, my love, and you hold my heart in your hands. To my agent, Meredith Bernstein, and to my editor, Kate Seaver: Your belief in me means so much. To Tony Mauro, an incredible cover artist. To my assistant, Andria Holley, and my volunteers, who help me keep track of everything. To my “Galenorn Gurlz,” those still with me, those who have come into my life, and those who crossed over the Bridge—I will always love you, even through the veil.

Most reverent devotion to Ukko, who rules over the wind and sky; Rauni, queen of the harvest; Tapio, lord of the woodlands; and Mielikki, goddess of the Woodlands and Fae Queen in her own right. All my spiritual guardians. And to the Fae—both dark and light—who walk this world beside us, may we see you in the shadows and in the shimmer of ice.

And the biggest thank you of all:
To my readers
