I would say definitely this is not my favorite. While it was a good story and a glimpse of the life of vikings. It just did not have the poetic feel of the other books. A caution to younger readers, some of the content is not for the conservative younger reader. Zeige 2 von 2 keine Rezensionen | Rezension hinzufügen

She travels with her mother and the man her mother has taken up with , Vigut, to a nearby holding in order to take part in the winter ceremony. This becomes a nightmare as Ran is chosen as the winter sacrifice and flees with a blind musician. Vigut becomes her sworn enemy and pursues her from Norway to Iceland, where she and her musician husband are trying to create a new life for themselves.
A simple story told with straight forward conviction, the author includes many details of Viking day-to-day life, including their beliefs and customs that shaped their world. A rather dark tale of doomed romance and fate. ( )
