Empty Altars — Judith Post
When the runes of the goddess, Diana, summon her to duty, she finds herself in a Norse meadow, battling hellhounds that are surprised to find her there. But the hellhounds aren't the only Norse unhappy to see her. The gods, Tyr and Donar, tell her to return home. Her runes beg to differ, and the 24 bones are always right. She's pretty sure, Norse gods can be far too stubborn and belligerent for their own good.
When Diana joins forces with Freya -- goddess of love, beauty, and seidr magic -- and Gudrun -- the village seer, she discovers that her runes are more devious than she'd ever imagined. They have a path in store for her, too, one she dislikes even more than Tyr and Donar abhor her meddling. She has to find a traitor in the gods' meadow and battle the evil witch, Heid. That, she's willing to try. But she's also to join with Tyr to defend sacred portals. Working with the Norse sky god will be the bigger challenge, for she's never been so tempted by a male in the centuries of her maiden life.
Can they win in the face of evil? And just how much can Diana resist?
