Rezensionen

This was an engaging tale of a young man on his first voyage with vikings. It was well-written, not stereotypical, with some character development of the individuals within the diverse crew. While there was violence and killing the author kept it from being unnecessarily graphic.

The first story in this omnibus was Viking's Dawn, which was an engaging tale of a young man on his first voyage with vikings. It was well-written, not stereotypical, with some character development of the individuals within the diverse crew. While there was violence and killing the author kept it from being unnecessarily graphic.

An Icelandic orphan runs off to sea with a band of Vikings. I found the story a little weak, but it's got some nice historical details and the characters are pretty good.

Muy lejos de la eterna Roma, más allá de las Galias, se encuentra la rica Isla de los Espíritus: Britania. Dos veces intentó el divino Julio César conquistarla y dos veces fue rechazado por sus salvajes habitantes y sus temibles tácticas de lucha con carros de guerra. Ahora, las invencibles legiones de emperador Claudio han desembarcado de nuevo en la isla y los nativos se preparan para defenderse. Caradoc y Gwyndoc, príncipes celtas de la tribu de los belgas, lideran la desesperada resistencia, abocada a la derrota, que les conducirá inexorablemente a la tragedia personal y a la ruina de toda una forma de vida. Henry Treece fue uno de los autores británicos más apreciados y reconocidos de su época. Autor de una amplia obra lírica y líder del movimiento de entreguerras del New Apocalypse, ha sido una gran influencia en toda una generación de escritores, entre los que se cuentan nombres tan reconocidos como Alan Garner, Michael Moorcock o Rosemary Sutcliff. Su talento brilla especialmente en sus obras históricas, como La isla de los espíritus, The Dream Time, The Great Captains o The Golden Strangers. Su don insuperable para transportar al lector a un mundo romántico más vivo y crudo, lleno de una fuerza aún sin civilizar, lo ha convertido en un maestro dentro del género.… (mehr)
