About this listen

Attracted by passion, repelled by war. Can two shieldmaidens navigate battlegrounds of the sword and the heart?

A Viking sapphic enemies-to-lovers action/romance.

Sigrid the Valiant is legendary throughout the kingdoms of Norvegr for her heroic deeds, but her love has yet to find a home. Now, racing on the heels of her father’s murder, a neighboring kingdom’s raids signal an all-out conflict. Elyn is a young shieldmaiden with a score to settle, fighting her own insecurities along with enemies who threaten her homeland, but she suspects a more menacing danger lurks on the horizon.

When the two clash on opposite sides of their shield walls, sparks fly from both their swords and passions. But when they talk, the fierce women discover an antagonist’s plot has pitted their kingdoms against each other. Can Sigrid and Elyn move past their suspicions and differences to forge a binding love and foil the villain’s scheme, or will the enemy’s assassins end their search for the truth?

Action, adventure, and intrigue ride together with romance in this enemies-to-lovers saga from the pre-Viking land of Norvegr. Award-winning, best-selling author Edale Lane brings history to life in this fast-paced sapphic novel. Grab your ax and rönd and join the quest by clicking to buy now!

If you’re looking for clean-leaning sapphic romance paired with historical fiction based on the pre-Viking era you’re in for a treat! Personally I did not have that on my book bingo card, however the story was fun, easy to listen to, and a nice balance between a battle/tribal conflict -centric plot as well as the sapphic romance. I also enjoyed the fun of the bad ass female leads. I don’t anticipate this winning any big literary awards, but that makes it no less enjoyable. If you’re in the mood to be entertained this is a great choice.

pre-Viking battles and sapphic romance for the win!

I love the story. I can’t read solid books anymore because when my eyes get tired I can’t see and it happens within a few pages. As such I have incredible respect for all of the performers who make these stories accessible to me again. This narrators natural voice wasn’t quite what I have gotten used to which admittedly took a minute to adjust to. What she might… erm… lack… I guess in the usual voice tone she makes up for in imaginative story telling. Her characters have defined voices that are easy to recognize. I applaud the performance and love the stories of these passionate, courageous and fair sheild maidens and their love. I’ve wanted this story for years and checked for it regularly. Thank you for bringing it to life for me💕💕

I’ve been waiting for someone to do an audio book of this!!!

This is the first book in the Tales from Norvegr series. It focuses on two shieldmaidens on opposite sides of the shield wall. This is a wonderful book filled with action, geopolitical treachery, drama, love and death. I really enjoyed the pacing of this book. It doesn’t rush into the relationship between Sigrid and Elyn so when they finally meet off the battlefield to solve a conspiracy, it is very satisfying. These two characters are well developed, and I was very invested in them. There are a lot of other terrific characters too, from heroes to villains. I listened to the audiobook version read by Rayne Potter. I was expecting a traditional narration, but it surprised me because it was read almost like an audio play. I highly recommend this series.

The story of Sigrid is a masterful blend of action, romance, and intrigue. But what truly sets this audiobook apart is the narrator's phenomenal performance. She expertly captures the essence of every character, breathing life into their struggles, passions, and triumphs. Each character has a distinct voice, making it easy to follow the story and feel deeply connected to their individual journeys. Sigrid's strength and valor are portrayed with a commanding tone that reflects her legendary status, while Elyn's youthful determination and inner conflicts are voiced with a nuanced sensitivity that makes her incredibly relatable. The narrator's ability to switch effortlessly between different voices and emotions adds a layer of depth to the narrative, making each interaction between the characters more engaging and immersive. There are a few scenes where it sounds as if you are in the middle of a grand viking hall listening as many voices argue over each other. From the tension of the battlefield to the intimate moments of vulnerability, the narrator's dynamic range and emotive delivery along with the authors intrigue, it will keep you on the edge of your seat. You don't NEED headphones to appreciate it but it is a hell of a ride if you have them. When does the next one come out?!
