The United States of Vinland: Red Winter, Paperback/Colin Taber

Descriere

Over a thousand years ago the Norse reached the Americas, but never stayed. What if they had? Following on from The United States Of Vinland: The Landing comes Red Winter. Eskil's dream of settling the newly discovered lands of the west to honour the Gods is under way. Godsland and Lakeland are no longer alone, as new villages grow and prosper in a world of fjords, forests and mountains, all of it claimed in the name of Odin. Competition between the rival halls of Ravens and Wolves continues, but now they must face a challenge that comes heralded by wailing horns and a horizon stained with smoke. Can the young settlements survive? But this is not the only threat to the Norse of Markland. Across the sea in their peoples' ancient homelands there are those who are jealous of the prosperity they see rising in the west. War is coming to Markland. Red Winter is the second book in the United States Of Vinland series.
