Publisher's summary

When a weak king rules a rich land then the people suffer. When a power-mad ruler wishes to take that land then there is only one outcome.

Sven Saxon Sword is content with his life but King Sweyn Forkbeard wants to use the Dragon Sword to help him claim a kingdom across the seas from Denmark. With Prince Cnut at his side, Sven has to fight not only the English but also Danes who change sides, Scots keen to grab land themselves and even the oathsworn of the new Danish king.

Great story!

This whole series was great, BUT I can't take the songs and chanting. Out of the approximate 25 hours of the series, a solid 2 hours were the exact same chant repeated 5 times in a row! aside from that..
Great story!

Fantastic series

Love everything about this series! The author has become one of my favorites and the narrator is perfect. I find myself holding my breath during some of the close calls of our hero and sad as some of the loyal friends pass into Valhalla. Cannot wait for the next book!!

How to easily up your word count by G. Hosker

Hey authors, want to pad your word count without actually writing more? Make up a silly sea shanty then simply repeat it ad nauseam about every 10 pages or so... or about 50 times per book. Good grief. My heart goes out to poor Mr. York who has to read the same text over and over and over again. At least the Audible App lets me fast forward past it.
