Overview

A bold and transportive retelling that Publishers Weekly calls "a treat for historical fantasy lovers," The Norse Saga of Sigurd renders bright a world of witches, gods, and valkyries—a place of mythic terrors and searing beauty.

A widowed queen, heavy with child, seeks refuge in a foreign kingdom, and there her son is born: Sigurd, last of the Volsung line. But what seems a destiny of glorious revenge will not be so simple. The weavers of fate have many threads to spin, some beautiful ... and some deadly. How brightly they rise from the harp-strings:

The Master of Masters.
The Glittering Heath.
The Nibelung Hoard.

Set against a backdrop of nuanced Viking culture, this first novella-length installment of Sigurd's legend begins as a young man's journey through a dangerous world, one peopled with kings and monsters, witches and giants. What begins here sets Sigurd on a course roiling with fate, will, and the machinations of gods and men—one that will shake his world to its very roots.
