Vikings! For more than a decade, author Christine Morgan's Viking stories have delighted readers and critics, standing apart from the anthologies they appeared in. She sings of heroes and everyday folk, tricksters and tale-tellers, standing tall and facing gods and monsters. And then, her voice: low and sonorous, musical and rhythmic, begins once again to weave the tapestry, telling tales of heroism and horror, glory and loss. The skald gives you a knowing glance, then takes a drink of her mead before continuing. Faraway wolves howl and call, echoing along the path to Niflheim, Hel's realm of the dead. The creak of ropes reminds you of Jormungandr, the Midgard Serpent, the world wrapped in its scaly embrace. The crash of distant waves invokes the whale-road, long ships traveling its path, their sides covered with brightly painted shields.
Every sound echoes, continues a fragment of the story. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - Silence.The skald pauses her tale.
