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.

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.
