Lindisfarne, AD793. There had been portents, famine, whirlwinds, lightning from clear skies, serpents seen flying through the air. But when the raiders came, no one was prepared. They came from the North, their dragon-prowed longships gliding out of the dawn mist as they descended on the kingdom's most sacred site. It is 8th June AD 793, and with the pillage of the monastery on Lindisfarne, the Viking Age has begun. While his fellow monks flee before the Norse onslaught, one young novice stands his ground. He has been taught to turn the other cheek, but faced with the slaughter of his brothers and the pagan desecration of his church, forgiveness is impossible. Geen bibliotheekbeschrijvingen gevonden. |

As Hunlaf goes forward into his new life he finds that traveling this new path is not going to be easy nor is it going to be what he thought it would be when he changed his vocation. But he does find his new band of brothers as it were and he learns his new craft slowly, surely and well.
The book is written as if it were Hunlaf’s diary of sorts. His writing down the story of his life as he remembers it. It makes for a bit of a slow beginning but it does pick up as Hunlaf leaves his monastic life behind. It’s the first of two books so one can guess that Hunlaf had one hell of a life! ( )
