Ambessa: Chosen Of The Wolf, a new League of Legends novel, hits the shelves in the US and UK
The world of League of Legends is steeped in rich lore and complicated back stories. Perhaps few family legends are more filled with war and bloodshed than the Medardas, with Mel being a central character in the Netflix series Arcane. Briefly in the first season, and more frequently in the second season, we encountered Mel’s mother Ambessa, a well-known League champion within the franchise. Ambessa: Chosen of the Wolf, written by acclaimed fantasy author C.L. Clarke, is set 10 years before the events of Arcane and centers around her fight to become the head of the Medardas. Battling to stay ahead on the battlefields as a warrior and general is daunting enough, but Medarda must also perform her duties as mother to Mel, and face off against her cousin Ta’Fik, who knows too much of her past and also wants to lead their clan. It all adds up, understandably, to a lot of stress for Ambessa. For fans of League of Legends, the prologue of the novel will be familiar, as it’s the written version of “Blood, Sweat & Tears”, the music video featuring Ambessa: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rhTZTy1rZhw Ambessa: Chosen of the Wolf is available now in both the US and UK in print novel, e-book, and audiobook formats from Amazon, Google Play, and all good book retailers.
