You can try my novel on Amazon, Viking Warlord: A Saga of Thorkell The Great, based on actual history, or you can amuse yourself with some fairly entertaining fakery about the Vikings by watching the tv series on the History channel. Apples and oranges. I'll admit that I'm biased, but then I'm also more interested in bringing the historical past to life than the creators of that series.

PS: If you'd like a jpg of the artwork that I used for the book cover, send me a PM with your email address and I'll send you a copy. It's a really neat image of an invading Viking fleet. Find somebody who can do a good print, and you've got yourself a nice wall decoration (like I've got hanging in my office).
 
I invite you to give this novel a chance. I'm a 70 year old retired guy who learned about the Norse culture from a dozen years of buying and selling artifacts--and doing the research to be a credible dealer--and am trying to bring some actual Viking history to life. I'm not William Faulkner, by any means, but every reader and blogger thus far has loved the book.
 
Hey, the Kindle version is just $2.99. What the hell can you buy that's worth anything for $2.99? And remember--it's for a good cause. :rolleyes:
 
Surely you must have some time on your hands, waiting between games, for a good historical novel about the real Vikings! And I'm not calling you Shirley! ;)
