          Fugitive Kára, the bastard daughter of a legendary hero, builds a new life on the mountain frontier, until bounty hunters find her, shattering her family’s cherished peace. To earn a pardon, she joins a hunting party sent to retrieve a wampus cat’s hide for the High King. It’s a perilous task, as the cat stalks the domain of the fierce and immortal Jotun. To survive, Kára plunders her father’s tomb, tearing Tyrfing, the last arcane weapon, from his undead hands. The rifle can slay any monster, but such strength comes at a terrible price: bloodlust and an unquenchable thirst for power. Immersive, propulsive, and compelling, NO MAN'S DAUGHTER combines Norse paganism with Appalachian folklore in a darkly magical nineteenth-century world, focusing on a woman’s fight to return to her family.

          "Justine Lombardi brings lyrical grit to the page with an epic saga that sweeps you into a world steeped in myth that is at once familiar and completely new. With a legendary heroine seeking redemption and a future, on a near-impossible quest into the heart of a brutal land, with vengeance hot on her heels and battle in her heart, No Man's Daughter is a triumphant debut and destined to become a fantasy classic." -Mia V. Moss, author of The Heresy of Thieves

          "Set in a fascinating Norse/North American milieu and featuring cinematic action, perfect pacing, and a protagonist I would happily follow into mortal danger, No Man's Daughter is an early contender for my favorite read of 2026. Fans of dark epic fantasy should drop whatever else they're reading and pick this up." -John Wheeler, author of Harvest of Spears

          "At once ancient and modern, No Man's Daughter is steeped in desperate yearning for some irreconcilable blend of belonging, affirmation, sanctuary, and vengeance. With each bloody step Kára takes deeper into the harsh wilds of Greater Vinland, readers can feel the life she's fighting for slipping through her grasp, and the life that awaits her instead looming like storm clouds." -Steven T. Gibbon, author of Lipsnitch Snilly

          "One of the best books I've read in a long time. Norse mythology meets the 1800s, with love, betrayal, and frost giants. Lombardi knows how to twist the knife." -Robert E. Harpold, author of When the Gods Are Away and The Starship, from a Distance

          "A deftly woven tale of love, grief, and righteous revenge, No Man's Daughter by Justine Lombardi is a welcome addition to modern fantasy. Kára is complex, carrying the weight of the sins of her father while also forging a path for herself in a world steeped in Appalachian folklore and Norse mythology. For those in search of the wild beauty of Tamriel in Skyrim or the haunting rugged adventure and grit of The Witcher 3, look no further. Lombardi delivers unto her readers the adventure of a lifetime." -Grace R. Reynolds, author of Neon Moon and The Lies We Weave
