This is an Audible original, which I'd heard - pre-listening - as probably best described as "World War Z, but with Dragons"

Which did prove to be pretty much spot on.

❄️ As December settles in and the nights grow long, it’s the perfect season for stories of wandering princes, whispered secrets, and divine mysteries.

In Feathers and Foxes, Terrwyn of Melthkior—a prince and wandering scribe—is summoned to uncover the truth behind stolen apples gifted by the goddess Olwen. But in the kingdom of Erast, riddles deepen, loyalties blur, and the sudden disappearance of a young maid named Sulien draws Terrwyn into something far more personal than a simple quest.

A reimagining of 'The Golden Bird,' woven with Welsh mythology and quiet romance, FEATHERS AND FOXES is ideal winter reading for fans of fairytale retellings and mythic fantasy. 🦊✨
