A Times Book of the Year 'A literary, intelligent read from a
masterful storyteller' In 1035, a young fifteen year old Viking is
dragged wounded from the battle. Left for dead, for the next twenty
years his adventures lead him over mountains, down the length of
Russia and ultimately to Constantinople and the Holy City of
Jerusalem. Drawn into political intrigue he will be the lover of
Empresses, the murderer of an emperor; he will hold the balance of
power in the Byzantine Empire in his hands, and then give it all up
for a Russian princess and the chance to return home and lead his
own people, where he must fight the demons of his past, his family
and his countrymen in a long and bitter war for revenge and power.
Told in his own voice, this is the astonishing true story of the
most famous warrior in all Christendom: Harald Hardrada, the last
Viking.
