Publisher's summary

Having recovered from the wounds of battle and having won for himself a fortune, a crew, and a longship, Thorgrim Night Wolf makes ready to leave the Viking town of Dubh-linn for the long journey back to his home in Norway. But the gods have other plans, and Thorgrim and his men wash up in the small Viking longphort of Vík-ló. Thinking themselves among friends, they soon learn that the opposite is true - that Grimarr Giant, the Lord of Vík-ló, has reason to want Thorgrim and his son, Harald, dead. In a world where they cannot tell friend from foe, a world of violence at sea and on land, Thorgrim, Harald, Ornolf, Starri, and their band of Norsemen find themselves once again fighting not just for plunder but for their very survival.

Oh. MY. LOVE. LOVE. Suspense!

I laughed out loud a few times during this book in the Viking series by Nelson, and I wept too. The author must be a bear on the outside but a marshmallow within. Why? He weaves details of the sea, ships, weapons and excruciating fighting... yet he gives such sweet and reverent descriptions of LOVE - in all forms - that makes us teary upon the hearing. LOVE THESE BOOKS! EXCELLENT NARRATION!

Viking Valor, Vengeance, and Vindication

I did not expect the story to carry forward with the strength of description, continuity of plot, and complete closure without trite wrap ups. The writing did not disappoint. Oh, I lied. I was disappointed that it ended.

Good storyline, with credible characters

Narrators style browns on listener with an appreciation and feel for the leading characters of the story. The story growns in strength as do the characters. Overall a good yarn, which is an easy listen.

Slower start, but picks up very well

Very thrilling once you get past all the seamanship details and story setup. As with the other books, there are multiple sides to every conflict.
