A frightening encounter with mysterious creatures transports twenty-year-old Thomas McCadden to 7th-century Britain. As he tries to survive this long-ago time, Thomas encounters the unknown and the otherworldly; an exiled warrior, holy men, tribal kings, and something far more sinister shadowing them all.

Is he a tool for the dark forces of this land? Or the liberator sent to save them all?

Wilding is the first book of The Traveller’s Path, a meticulously researched historical fantasy series set in Northumbria, A.D. 642. It introduces a long-ago world, and a young man whose choices could have disastrous ramifications for it—and ours.

“L.A. Smith cleverly weaves history and fantasy together into an intriguing tale of Dark Ages religion and magic.” (Matthew Harffy, author of A Time for Swords)
