The King’s Road, Volume I, by Christopher Hannon

Christopher Hannon’s first Echoes of Asgard novel was published October 27, 2026. The Kindle edition is available to order on Amazon.com.

Before the legends, there was a road home.

The King’s Road follows Thor onto the eastern road after a patrol falls silent. Finding the missing men is the immediate task. Bringing them home means confronting signs of danger that become harder to ignore with every mile.

Asgard remains behind him: a working city of workshops, families and water channels, held together by people whose responsibilities do not pause when trouble begins. Sif, Tyr, Loki and Odin face pressure within the city as the consequences of events beyond its walls begin to reach home.

The people inside the story

Christopher Hannon’s approach to Echoes of Asgard begins with the society around its familiar figures. A road matters because somebody depends on it. A promise matters because somebody has trusted it. Law, work, family and military responsibility give the story its consequences.

The novel is Volume I of Echoes of Asgard: The First Chronicle, Stone and Oath. Publication date: October 27, 2026. Edition specifications are listed by the retailer; ebook pagination can vary with the reading format.

Explore the work behind it

Hannon’s essays explore the research, writing and production questions behind the project. They consider surviving Norse sources alongside the choices required to create fiction. His production-world work uses geography and terrain to examine the practical relationships between places, people and events.

The Echoes of Asgard television series remains in development. October 27 is the book publication date, not a television premiere announcement. Current series information and the announced public team are maintained on the official Echoes website.

Not joined. Presence requires JavaScript and a configured service.

Joining sends only your chosen area and a temporary session token to Hearth Presence. No name, reading history, precise position, or saved visitor profile. Small groups stay private: an area appears only when at least three sessions have joined. No exact visitor counts are shown.

Join also loads Cloudflare Turnstile to check for automated requests. Presence ends when you leave, hide this tab, navigate away, or use Clean View. If a request is lost, it expires within 90 seconds. Returning never rejoins automatically.

This shows participating sessions, not everyone visiting either website. It is not a promise that three different people are present.
