Summary
LONGLISTED FOR THE WILBUR SMITH ADVENTURE WRITING PRIZE 2022.

An action-packed historical novel featuring Danish warrior Styrkar, and his journey through the violent Norman Conquest as he fights for vengeance.

The champion of a dead king has nothing left to lose... And nothing more to fear.

Hastings, 1066.
Styrkar the Dane stumbles wounded and delirious from the corpse-strewn battlefield of Senlac Hill. He has watched his king butchered at the hands of foreign knights, seen his countrymen defeated in battle, and he will not stop until there is a reckoning.

Styrkar embarks on a bloody quest to avenge his dead master, becoming an outlaw in the wilds and earning a fearsome reputation. When a Breton knight seeks to track down this fugitive and make his own name, he can little envisage the task he has set himself. For Styrkar, the Red Wolf, last surviving housecarl to King Harold Godwinson, will carve the story of his vengeance in Frankish flesh... or die in the attempt.

Perfect for fans of Bernard Cornwell, Giles Kristian, and Guy Gavriel Kay. As well as those who enjoyed the world of 'Assassin's Creed: Valhalla.'

This is one of the better reads I have experienced. I loved the series “the warded man” this is on that level. Great story line and the narrator is phenomenal. Can’t wait to get to the next book shield breaker.

Plenty of action and beautiful blood slaughter. Highly Recommended. Conclusion has one craving more. Narrator was fantastic.

Excellent story and narration. As a historian I am always skeptical about historical fiction but the author does an excellent job of emersing the reader/listener in Anglo-Saxon and Norman England and compelling characters show the interplay of migrants and their impact on society. Excited for the sequel.

I loved this. And the narrator’s voice was outstanding! I plan to continue with this series as long as I get to hear more of this narrator.

Enjoyed the story so much I down loaded the sequel.

Profile Avatar Lauren D. Jun 2023

I love a good historical novel and this followed history very well, but was a little more swashbuckling/romance than I prefer. The narrator was great, but I couldn’t ever accept the main characters voice. My issue, not narrators.
