"HISTORICAL FICTION AT ITS BEST: I DEVOURED THIS BOOK! Have
eagerly awaited it after reading the other ones in this series, and
the author DID NOT DISAPPOINT!!! Characters are so real and human
it feels as if you really know them. The story completely draws you
into Viking age Iceland: the promise of a new land to the West, a
growing conflict between Pagans and Christians, and a stolen child
that plays a central role. The author mixes interactions with the
spirit world and touches of magical realism with everyday realities
of medieval life. A well-written and deeply researched novel that I
HIGHLY RECOMMEND IF YOU LIKE TO IMMERSE YOURSELF IN A BIG,
UNFORGETTABLE STORY. I'd love to see the movie version!"
"The 4th volume of this unusual series set in Iceland during the
discovery and colonization of Greenland is an extraordinary example
of novelized history, bringing us up to the departure of colonists
for the new land. This reader hopes for the saga to be continued
with the eventual discovery and settlement of Vinland in
Newfoundland by Leif Eriksson. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED TO ANYONE
INTERESTED IN THIS SUBJECT!"
