As the blood moon rises, the shadow of Ragnarok falls on Uppsala.

With the dark days in Dalr behind them, Hervor and Hofund journey to Grund. Hervor’s focus turns to tracking down the sea kings and taking vengeance, but she soon finds that life in Grund is convoluted. Family grudges, secret alliances, and shady friendships abound in the capital. Everyone has their own agenda, and for some, Hervor is in the way. Hervor will find that surviving Grund is far more complicated than the bloody fields. But a blood moon is rising. Soon, Odin’s shield-maiden must clear the path to her promised future...no matter who must meet Tyrfing to ensure that fate.

Continue the Road to Valhalla series with Shield-Maiden: Under the Blood Moon. Fans of Vikings and The Last Kingdom will relish this viking historical fantasy from New York Times best-selling author Melanie Karsak.

This story is well written and has plenty of twists and turns. I really enjoyed it! There were some dear characters we had to say goodby to, but we were also introduced to new ones.

Narration was well done and brought the characters to life.

This series is very engaging and I can’t wait to see what will happen next. If you enjoy Viking historical fantasy you will love this series. Actually, even if you don’t normally read this genre give it a try. It might surprise you of how good this series is.

Excellent Series!

oh man, you know I did struggle a little with some of the more stagnet parts in all 3 books but they do come rarely and I have grown to love the main characters. SPOILER ALERT - My heart broke in the second due to the loss of the bears and then in the 3rd, this book, the owner of those bears that I had become so fond of and who is also a main character passes but in a very honorable way. the fight scenes are epic, the cliff hangers and turning points are so intense and jaw dropping!
I drive for my current job so I sit and have listened to all 4 books in a row so far and I haven't been this engaged with a book in a while. I'm about to check and see if there is a 4th book because I only have an hour left of this one. This book has a power house female lead viking type, and the author did a great job not making it full of romance or teenage humor by no means. very well articulated and I love the very history and culture that is presented within the story. the witty humor is great too so if you're looking for a decently balanced book with epic battles, rich storyline history, great characters, and an over all fun book - this is your book!

sha-boom! what a journey!

I loved every minute of her performance! She reads very well and clear. She catches you in the story with her different character voices and voice acting! At times I think she really gets into the story. Great storytelling! Skol!

Loved every minute!!

Predictable, but shouldn't historical fiction be just that? Likeable characters. Sly twists and turns. Great references and nods to Norse mythology and legends. Highly recommend to fans of Vikings and The Last Kingdom.

Entertaining
