The wolves of Odin have been unleashed: the hunt has begun.Anno
Domini 1040. Christianity has swept unstoppably across Scandinavia,
leaving few enclaves of the old ways clinging on to their fading
world as King Olof of Sweden works to convert his people. A young
warrior, Halfdan, has witnessed the 'mercy' of the Christian lords,
watched his people attacked, his village burned and the Odin stone
toppled as heretical. Watched his father cut down by an ambitious
Christian jarl and his zealous priest. Among the ashes of his world
he vowed an oath of vengeance before all the gods. That oath will
bring together an unlikely band of allies and carry them to the
very edge of the world, fighting giants, dragons and wraiths, in
pursuit of his father's killer: Yngvar. The jarl is powerful, and
the weaving of Fate difficult, but the blood price must be paid. A
compelling and explosive novel of revenge, this is a major new
series from S.J.A. Turney. Perfect for fans of Bernard Cornwell,
Giles Kristian and Angus Donald. Praise for Blood Feud 'Si Turney
is a natural born storyteller, gifted, brilliant and utterly
enthralling. Blood Feud tells the story of a young Norse warrior,
Halfdan, who swears to avenge the murder of his father. The reader
is almost immediately immersed into the action, swept away into the
dragon-ship beside Halfdan and his tough, salty and occasionally
hilarious crew of Vikings... An intelligent, fast-paced but finely
crafted novel of battle, comradeship and bloody revenge - with some
surprising twists along the way. Highly recommended to all those
who enjoy a superior Viking adventure yarn!' Angus Donald, author
of The Last Berserker 'SJA Turney's new Viking epic is a
bone-crunching good time! A resourceful young warrior on a quest
for vengeance takes to the sea with a dragon long-ship and a motley
band of new friends, fighting old enemies, foreign wars and the
mysterious workings of fate at every new turn of the tide. Blood
Feud is sure to thrill those mourning the end of Bernard Cornwell's
Saxon Stories' Kate Quinn, author of The Rose Code 'A rich
combination of saga and quest, religion and violence, with a
satisfying conclusion that paves the way for further adventures'
Ruth Downie, author of the Medicus series
