Buy the book from:
The Mediterranean in the late 930s. With northern rulers unwilling to shelter them, Einar and the Wolf Coats sail south along the whale road. An encounter with a slave trader takes them into al-Andalus, where a homecoming for one member of the crew ends in imprisonment under the Caliph of Córdoba.
Their escape carries them into a sea contested by Muslim fleets, Byzantine warships, Viking mercenaries and pirate commanders. Einar sees a possible route back to his lost position in Orkney, but must first save an innocent captive and keep his scattered company alive amid weapons and powers unlike those of the northern world.
