Their world was threatened - torn asunder from within by the primitive warring of bloodthirsty nomadic tribes; now threatened from without by mysterious strangers. But Jalav, Amazon war leader of the savage Hosta clan, lay dying on a cold battlefield and cared for naught but her spirit's safe flight to the bosom of Mida, patron goddess of the Midanna Amazons. But peace was not to be the lot of Jalav. Abducted in her weakness by a tribe of northern barbarian riders, her destination lay in the frozen arctic wastes, far from her beloved sister warriors and the protective embrace of Mida the Golden. For she was the one spoken of in the prophecy of the Snows - the savior who must travel to the glacial hell of Sigurr's Peak and beyond, and without whom any mission to save their embattled world would surely fail!

Jalav escapes capture by males, but when she's badly wounded during the escape she falls captive again. Once she's healed she's taken on a journey to a place where the dark god Sigurr is supposed to be found. Once there she finds someone else as well, as well as something of an explanation of what's been happening.
