The Realms Thereunder follows Daniel Tully and Freya Reynolds, who at thirteen stumbled into Nidergeard, a hidden world beneath Oxford filled with sleeping knights and ancient evils. Eight years later, now in their twenties, their lives have been irrevocably shaped by that encounter. Daniel operates as a homeless vigilante fighting monsters that bleed into the modern world, while Freya, an Oxford student steeped in folklore, struggles to bury the trauma of her childhood.
When the barrier between worlds begins to crumble, they're pulled back into a conflict they thought long behind them. Joined by a Scottish police officer who hunts mythical creatures, Daniel and Freya must stand against an encroaching darkness that threatens to consume both realms. As ancient knights rise and evil spreads across Britain, they face a reckoning that will test everything they've learned and everything they've tried to forget.
