About this listen

Fighting in Sweden for an ambitious warlord, Sigurd Haraldarson and his small but loyal band of oath-sworn warriors are winning fame and reputation. But Sigurd knows that to take on his hated enemy, the oath breaker King Gorm - the man who betrayed his father, a man Sigurd has vowed to kill - he must earn riches enough to build an army.

Many believe Sigurd to be Óðin-favoured, but his exploits have drawn the eye of another god, too: Loki the Trickster. And when a daring assassination attempt goes wrong, Sigurd finds himself a prisoner of the powerful Jarl Guthrum. Bound like a slave, his luck having seemingly deserted him, Sigurd is taken to the sacred temple at Ubsola, a place where the blood of human sacrifice flows to appease the gods.

It is at Ubsola that Sigurd will face the sacrificial knife. And it is here that he will find a powerful relic, the great spear that was said to have once belonged to Óðin himself.

With such a spear in his possession, Sigurd might now assemble a host strong enough to challenge King Gorm and wreak the revenge he craves. For, like Óðin, Sigurd will be the Wild Huntsman tearing through the sky on his fearsome steed, and the rage of his passing will be the sound of wings of the storm.

With Wings of the Storm, one of our finest young historical novelists brings his extraordinary Viking saga - an adventure that is sure to satisfy any Game of Thrones fan - to a triumphant close.

Good Savage, if sometimes unbelievable

Very good, and enjoyable. if you like Bernard Cornwell (Saxon Chronicles) you will like this series. I look for to this authors future work. one distraction is how frequently limbs are lopped off, or men "split in two", evidence suggests that this was actually quite rare

Five Stars!!!!!

This is by far my favorite and best audiobook series I have ever listened to!! I could also listen to the narrator (Philip Stevens) for ages. He does a phenomenal job and really brings the rise of Sigurd to life. I hope Philip Stevens will narrate other works in the future!!

Excellent storytelling, traditionally done.

Superbly written. The story was highly entertaining. It was written to resemble the style of a saga and succeeded in bringing that flavor to a most agreeable book. Unfortunately the narrator has only a single voice and limited talent. His performance was the only disappointment I experienced in what was an otherwise great series.

A grand finale

An excellent tale from start to finish. The finale gave me full-body goosebumps. Can't wait to read more of this author's works.
