About this listen

The Viking King Authun leads his men on a raid against an Anglo-Saxon village. Men and women are killed indiscriminately, but Authun demands that no child be touched. He is acting on prophecy. A prophecy that tells him that the Saxons have stolen a child from the gods. If Authun, in turn, takes the child and raises him as an heir, the child will lead his people to glory.

But Authun discovers not one child but twin baby boys. Ensuring that his faithful warriors, witnesses to what has happened, die during the raid, Authun takes the children and their mother home, back to the witches who live on the troll wall. And he places his destiny in their hands.

And so begins a stunning multivolume fantasy epic that will take a werewolf from his beginnings as the heir to a brutal Viking king down through the ages. It is a journey that will see him hunt for his lost love through centuries and lives and see the endless battle between the wolf, Odin and Loki - the eternal trickster - spill over into countless bloody conflicts from our history and over into our lives.

Norse Themed Fantasy

This is an interesting book. I was expecting a pulpy, blood ‘n’ guts kind of adventure story but this book surprised me.

Many of the struggles in this book are internal - both metaphorically and literally. Lots of descriptions of magic users reaching into each others minds and wrestling with cryptic symbolism. I felt like it took a while to get going but once it did it was quite engaging and fun. (Still with its share of squick!)

Since I wrote my PhD in this stuff I should state that this is Norse oriented fantasy. There’s not a lot to this that’s historically accurate in a contextual sense, but it’s clear the author has done some reading to get here.

Read it for fun, but if you want to learn something about Viking age sorcery I’d recommend picking up “The Viking Way” or “Children of Ash and Elm” both by Neil Price, plus the Eddas if you want some primary sources.

Poor Narration. Still a good story.

I read this book 10 years ago and absolutely loved it. This time around however I did notice some odd choices in writing style and dialog between characters. All in all still a good book. The narration however I did not care for at all, the inconsistencies in accents for certain characters and the Scottish accents for, presumably, Norwegians (or other scandinavians) really messed with me the whole time, along with other things. I would still recommend the book but perhaps not this audio version.

Delightfully horrifc

As with Fenrir, thus story built itself into an incredible, chilling tale. A good twist and incredible details

Skål!

I am thrilled at how this book turned out. It's the perfect blend of Viking Saga and Norse Mythology. Lachlan did an amazing job with bringing to life the stories of Odin, Loki, and Fenrisúlfr (Fenrir) during Ragnarok. Mark Meadows did an amazing job with his narration of this book. I enjoyed it so much that I will be listening to it again soon.
