Varanger
ByPublisher Description
Conn Corbansson is a clever and strong leader of men and his cousin and best friend, the god-touched Raef, is his navigator and shield against evil. After joining a fur-trading ship to Russia they are forced to overwinter in the icebound village of Novgrod.
But tempers flare in the confinement, and factions form—the far-faring Norse against the native Rus, the honor-bound warriors against the gold-seeking traders. Taking service with the leader of the Rus, Dobrynya, they travel south to Kiev, and on with a raiding party that will take them all the way into the northern reaches of the Byzantine Empire.
Praise for the writing of Cecelia Holland:
"Elements of romance, mysticism, and suspense are interwoven into one superlative, spine-tingling adventure." —
"The best historical novelist since France's Zoé Oldenbourg." —
