Description

At not quite fifteen, Stefan's father finally let him board the longship, Sja Vinna, to take part in his first Viking raid. Yet, the battle was not at all what he expected, and he soon found himself alone and stranded in Scotland.

Thirteen-year-old Kannak's situation was just as grave. Her father deserted them and the only way to survive, she decided, was to take a husband over her mother's objections. Instead, she found herself hiding a hated Viking, and that wasn't the only problem - someone was plotting to kill the clan's beloved laird.

    I have passed over reading this several times due to it being about a twelve and a thirteen year old. Was I ever mistaken. There are strong characters, romance and action to make this a great movie. I will be reading others from this author!
  • A Viking story to thrill.

    A great rollicking ride. Characters strong and beloved, action and exciting and above all filled with hope. Clean language and no vulgarity. Good old fashioned story telling.

    Enjoyed reading this. Was just enough romance to make it interesting but with lots of action with twists and turns.

    Being of Scot & Viking blood, as well as many other tribes, I feared this tale would be another Hollywood/modern era misconception of how these folks & all folks lived in the past. Hallelujah & Praise the Lord!!! This story ain’t like that! And no gratuitous language, sex or violence! I shall purpose to read on of the many tales of Marti. Thanks for a good tale to pass on.

    Awesome story! Loved reading it. Cared about the characters. Romance without smut, still very exciting and refreshing!
