Neat story

This is an interesting tale set in intriguing 11th century England. Thorgils love affair with Aelfgifu was written with subtlety and deftness, and all of the characters really came alive. Wish the author had given King Knut more dialogue, since his presence loomed throughout the novel, but it was a good read anyway!

Even Better than the First Book

This is the second book in the thrilling Viking trilogy and although I enjoyed the first book very much, the author seems to have really got his teeth into the adventure now and I found that I read the book in no time at all. The year is 1020 AD the place, London. It is a few weeks since Thorgils has escaped the clutches of the Irish Church, but he now finds himself driven even further into the mire when he find himself at the centre of a love affair with none other than Aelfgifu, wife of Knut the Great, not only ruler of England but one of the most powerful and feared men in the Viking empire. As the passionate relationship unfolds it augurs nothing but trouble for Thorgils. With Thorgils finally on the run again he meets up with an outlaw, Grettir. The pair become traveling companions and sworn brothers which binds them together not only through life, but death also. At the gates of Byzantium Thorgils' loyalty is put to the ultimate test . . .

Viking Trilogy

Awsome! As I read book one and then book three (Sworn Brother has been deleted in the UK) it was was a joy to read the entire series - yes I re-read Odins' Child. Can I be a Viking please?

Viking Trilogy

This is the 2nd book of the Viking Trilogy and it was as fascinating as the first book. I would suggest that you read them in order. I am now ordering the 3rd book, The King's Man. Many of the words used to describe things are authentic and make you feel you are in that time and place. I highly recommend this if you are a history buff.

Great Read

This book is very well written; I couldn't put it down. I really enjoyed the style of writing. If you are interested in Norse Mythology at all you will like this one. It's not a huge part of the story but it is there. I am really looking forward to reading the 2nd book.
