The Viking's Chosen

Narrators: this book has two narrators, as the book is written from the POVs of two protagonists. Both narrators, however, have terrible accents. They do, at least, do well enough at giving each character different enough characteristics that it is possible to tell which character is speaking at all times, but the accents nearly made my ears bleed at times. Author: This really shouldn't be considered historical fiction. If anything, it could be considered alternative history (if not straight-up fiction) as all the characters and most of the place names are made up. Additionally, the author regularly uses language that would not have existed at the time of the Vikings (words like "bloomers" and "ok" are quite regularly used). Also, this is part of a series; I might not have started this book if I had known it wasn't a self-contained novel.
