“Action, adventure, and the sheer fun that reading can be… Deeply, profoundly Christian, but in a bold, battling way.” – Gene Edward Veith, author, The Spirituality of the Cross.
What is better? To impersonate a Christian priest for a Viking chieftain, or remain a slave? Aillil of Ireland doesn’t hesitate. But he’ll soon have reason to question his choice.
In a Norway wracked by religious and political change, his master Erling Skjalgsson is fighting obstinate heathens, old family foes, and new challengers:
A blacksmith struck by lightning, who sees things that shouldn’t be seen…
A slave who longs to be hanged, and wants Aillil to do it for him…
A dead man who walks again…
And a new king who doesn’t stint at murder and torture to further his cause…
Unlikely friends, Aillil and Erling will stand and fight together against natural and supernatural forces, to build the dream of a free Christian land.
They just have to vanquish a thousand enemies.
And themselves.
“I cannot give a high enough recommendation to Lars Walker’s Norse saga.” – Hunter Baker, The American Spectator Online.
