Book
Crowbone
First published 2012
On the Isle of Man in 979 CE, a dying monk entrusts a secret to Olaf Tryggvason, the young prince called Crowbone. The message may strengthen Olaf’s claim to Norway, but understanding it requires a voyage through Ireland and Scandinavia with a newly assembled band of followers.
Gunnhild, Mother of Kings, and her surviving allies pursue the same secret and intend to destroy Olaf before he can challenge their dynasty. Orm and the Oathsworn support the expedition, but shipwreck, divided loyalties and Olaf’s growing ruthlessness test whether the old brotherhood can serve a man whose ambition is to become king.
