Vikings of the Broken Raven: People of the Fiery Pines

The sea has carried them farther than they ever intended—and now it may be the only way home.

Driven from familiar shores by blood, fire, and oath-bound duty, the crew of the Broken Raven crosses into a land unknown. Towering forests press down to cold waters. Rivers twist like serpents through mountains no skald has named. This coast is not empty. It is claimed. Watched. Defended.

For the warriors of the Broken Raven, survival has never depended on mercy. It depends on steel, resolve, and the unspoken bond between those who fight shoulder to shoulder. Every landing is a gamble. Every shoreline hides enemies who know the terrain, the weather, and the cost of weakness.

Among the towering pines, they encounter a people hardened by isolation and war—fighters who burn their dead, guard their borders fiercely, and answer trespass with blades rather than words. Old-world tactics clash with unfamiliar methods. Raids become traps. Victories demand sacrifice. No one walks away unchanged.

At the heart of the struggle stands a leader forced to weigh honor against survival. Every decision ripples through the crew. Every loss sharpens the truth that leadership is not glory—it is burden. Loyalty is tested. Brotherhood is strained. And the line between raider and defender blurs with every clash.

The Broken Raven itself becomes more than a ship. It is a symbol—of defiance, of exile, of the thin edge between freedom and annihilation. When storms close in and enemies press from the forest, escape may demand more than strength of arms. It may demand unity at a cost few are willing to pay.

People of the Fiery Pines delivers relentless action grounded in historical grit—shield walls, river ambushes, brutal close combat, and hard-earned victories. Humor surfaces where warriors allow it, sharp and earned, never softening the stakes. The world is harsh, the choices unforgiving, and survival is never guaranteed.

This is Viking fiction without fantasy—no gods intervening, no magic to turn the tide. Only men and women shaped by the sea, the axe, and the choices that follow them into battle.

Perfect for readers who crave fast-paced historical adventure, authentic Viking-era warfare, and character-driven saga storytelling, Vikings of the Broken Raven: People of the Fiery Pines expands the journey into darker territory—where every shore promises conflict, and the only law that matters is the one enforced at blade's reach.

The saga continues. The Raven sails. And the forest burns.
