Táto séria zavedie čitateľov do drsného sveta raného stredoveku, kde sa stretáva pohanská severská kultúra s kresťanskou Anglickou. Sledujeme osudy mladého muža, ktorý sa z outsidera stane neohrozeným bojovníkom a vodcom. Príbehy sú plné akcie, intríg, statočnosti a objavovania vlastnej identity v nehostinnom prostredí plnom vojen a zrad. Je to epická sága o prežití a hľadaní svojho miesta vo svete.
The first book in a thrilling Viking trilogy that launched the career of acclaimed historical novelist Giles Kristian - who's now confronting the tumult and devastation of the English Civil War in The Bleeding Land... When raiders from across the sea ransack his village, Osric finds himself taken prisoner by their chief, Sigurd the Lucky.
If you betray a Fellowship you are a dead man... Sailing in search of revenge, the pagan Norsemen venture into the heart of a Christian empire that would wipe their kind from the face of the earth, a place where danger lies in wait around every bend of the great river up which they travel.
We lusted for an even greater prize...th e one prize that can never be lost or stolen or burnt. And we would find it in Miklagard... Raven and the Wolfpack have suffered. Good men have died, treasure has been lost. But to Norsemen such as these there is something more valuable than silver: fame - for fame is the saga-story that a warrior leaves behind when he dies. Now the Fellowship sails in search of Constantinople, which they call Miklagard, for it is there that they hope to find both riches and glory. It is a voyage that will lead them into unknown and dangerous waters - from the barren, wind-whipped marshes of the Carmargue to the crumbling walls and blood-drenched arenas of a decaying Rome, from brutal hand-to-hand conflict, to vile treachery and betrayal. And as Miklagard echoes to the sound of sword and axe and spear, Raven and his fellow adventurers will pay a high price for the fame they seek...
