Forlagsbeskrivelse af Arnulf Wolfblood af S.C. Pedersen

Arnulf is wild like the eagle and the wolf in his name (Arn – eagle, ulf – wolf). He yearns for going a-viking and fierce deeds, but when his brother Helge’s ship returns home bloody, all dreams are crushed. Blind with grief, Arnulf commits crimes and misdeeds and the young Viking’s actions force him out on a dramatic, perilous and eventful journey with a Norwegian thrall. Pillaging, meetings with royalty and bloody battles lie ahead, and after sailing to England with the North men from Haraldsfjord, Arnulf encounters the Vikings from Jomsborg. Being acknowledged among such raw and hardened warriors isn’t easy, for they know the battlefield well and don’t tolerate weakness. Arnulf composes skaldic verses for Sweyn Forkbeard and faces Earl Hakon in a battle at sea, but he never forgets his Frejdis and family in Egilsund in Denmark. Arnulf Wolfblood, Book One of Arnulf – A Viking Saga blends fiction with awe-inspiring history. A time when friendship and kinship were paramount and where survival required fateful choices. For followers of Bernard Cornwell and Vikings who want to get completely under the skin of the Vikings with uncompromising realism, in all its imposing horror and beauty, where fictional characters and events are woven seamlessly with authentic historical people and events.
