'Compelling, disturbing, entertaining, this is a bloody riot from
start to finish. In every good sense' Theodore Brun, author of A
Burning Sea Conflict flares once more in Saxony...March, AD 773.
Bjarki Bloodhand is now Fire Born - a legendary berserker inhabited
by the ferocious spirit of a bear in battle. Yet he has sworn never
again to allow that sacred rage to possess him, lest he for ever
lose himself in the madness like his father. Tor Hildarsdottir
yearns to save pagan Saxony from the grip of the Christian Franks,
who now occupy half the region. But she also has serious problems
closer to home with her fast-growing pet bear cub, Garm, and,
worse, she seems to be falling in love. Widukind, new lord of the
Saxons, is on a mission to reconquer the lands of his fathers from
the Franks. He will stop at nothing to win the hearts of the men
and women of the North, and bind them to his cause. But will they
follow the Saxon Wolf in an unwinnable war? And will Bjarki join
them? The epic second novel in the Fire Born saga, perfect for fans
of Bernard Cornwell, Giles Kristian, and Matthew Harffy. Praise for
The Saxon Wolf 'Donald has spun another terrific yarn, skilfully
interweaving heart-thumping action sequences with a compelling
plot... his writing is original and completely convincing. The
Saxon Wolf is another step forward and a step up in the Fire Born
series. Compelling, disturbing, entertaining, this is a bloody riot
from start to finish. In every good sense' Theodore Brun, author of
A Burning Sea Praise for The Last Berserker, Volume One in the Fire
Born series'Donald has taken the legendary berserkers, those
frothing-at-the-mouth shield-biters, and made them human, which
once again proves that Donald is a writer not only at the top of
his game, but of the game ... It is a wonderful, rich and violent
brew. I welcome Angus Donald to the shield wall of Viking fiction
like a thirsty man welcomes a mead-brother to the feast ... A tale
worthy of the skalds' Giles Kristian, author of the Raven series
'With The Last Berserker, Donald has given us the first cut of some
serious Dark Age beef. By turns heart-racing, intriguing, and
touching, this is not a book for the faint-hearted - I can't wait
for more' Theodore Brun, author of A Burning Sea 'The Last
Berserker strikes with the thundering power of Thor's hammer...
rich with the earthy depth, historical detail, intrigue, violence
and adventure that we expect from Donald. But it is Bjarki and Tor
that make The Last Berserker stand out... Donald's masterful
creations will live on in the imagination long after the final
page' Matthew Harffy, author of the Bernicia Chronicles 'A
wonderful, blood-soaked tale of redemption and revenge, set amidst
the eighth century clash of civilisations between Pagan Vikings and
Christian Franks, by a master of the genre' Saul David, author of
Zulu Hart 'Loved this tale of a berserker facing up against the
tidal wave of Charlemagne's expansion. Great characters,
brilliantly paced and explosive, gritty battle-scenes. Highly
recommended' John Gwynne, author of Malice 'Well researched detail
and stunning battle scenes make The Last Berserker a white knuckle
ride. A thrilling, up-all-night read' C. R. May, author of The Day
of the Wolf 'I loved it. Bjarki and Tor are great characters,
instantly relatable. The depth of the immersion in their world and
their values gives the book authenticity and weight' Cecelia
Holland, author of The Soul Thief
