Elswyth felt out of place from the time she was a little girl in her village she knew she was different from the other girls and boys in her village she knew that her village had been attacked and her father had been killed and her mother raped by the Northmen. She learned how to do most of the things better than most of the boys and her grandmother and her aunt helped raise her after her mother got sick and died they taught her the things that women needed to know. Then the Chieftain of their village decided that he wanted her and her grandmother encouraged her to marry him even though he was a pig in bed he took care of her and she excepted that. And then one morning early their village was attacked again by the Northmen and one of them was a warrior named Eirik and his sister Helkna and how they changed Elswyth’s life this time some things changed and some didn’t. Book 1 of this series. I am reviewing this book which I purchased.
*Maybe SPOIIERS*So Elswyth has always felt different from most of the people in her village, her only family is her ageing grandmother that she love’s dearly. Then the Viking northmen come before light and kill most of the men.She meets the bravest and the hoootest Viking Eirik and his sister.Things go from cold to sizzling hoooot between her and Eirik and when they leave to go home,no surprise that Elswyth goes with Eirik and crew.Its so hoooot and sizzling steamy between Eirik and Elswyth that you all will enjoy this story hopefully.Couldn’t put it down til I finished it.Loved her telling of this story, and look forward to more from her.
I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.
When the Northman came, almost everyone was sleeping. There was no one to protect them. They pulled the great chieftain out from under the bed where he was trying to hide. In his wailing for his life, he offered them Elswyth stating she was young and strong. They could have anything they wanted. He was not spared.
This is the prequel to the “Viking Warriors” series. Emmanuelle de Maupassant has given a brief description and explanation of the Gods these Northman believed in and what it was like when a village was invaded. The characters are multi-dimensional, the description in the storyline is so visual you can picture it. There are many side stories going in this prequel to keep you interested in the story and want to know more. A great read for sure.
Very realistic and creative. This is not for the faint of heart. Fast paced, but well written.
