But Raef's father refuses to allow the journey and when a stranger brings word that the king is dead and a gathering has been called to choose a successor, Raef must set aside his dream for his duty to his ancestral lands and his father. When factions split at the gathering to choose a successor, Raef finds himself mired in bloodshed and treachery.

This Norse fantasy novel spins the tale of Raef Skallagrim, fierce warrior and son of a lord who disagrees with Raef‘s desire to go to sea. Raef attends an important gathering with his father that ends in chaos and tragedy and as a result he is catapulted into war and the promise of revenge. There is plenty to enjoy here: battles, strategy, myth, betrayal, and mystery that is woven throughout. Well-written with an interesting plot and characters.
