Welcome to gwensalir

gwensalir is where I talk about the books I’ve written, and the books I’ve read.

Periodically, I post book reviews here, but you can also find them on Goodreads.

As Gwen Marsh, I am writing Hallowed Blood, an action-packed fantasy series following Torin Maddox, a monster hunter who finds himself at the centre of the sinister Order of Divine Balance’s deadly agenda. The first book in the series, Beneath Dark Waters, is due to be released in 2026.

As Gwendoline SK Terry, I have written the Danethrall Trilogy, a trio of dark, gritty historical fiction novels set in 9th century Denmark that follow Aveline Birgersdottir, an Anglo-Saxon, as she tries to survive in the violent, bloody world of the Danes.

Visit the Danethrall Trilogy page to read excerpts from Danethrall, Rise To Fall and Ashes Remain.

On this site, you can find detailed information about the Danethrall Trilogy, including notes of various parts of the books, recommended reading list and websites, Old Norse-English translations, and more.

The Danethrall Trilogy is available in paperback and eBook format, and is free to read on Kindle Unlimited.
