What happens when a valkyrie breaks Valhalla's most sacred law - by choosing a still-living warrior from the battlefield?Togrunn Torlssen, last man standing of a doomed border patrol, is about to find out.

Fifteen year-old Tog is tougher and more determined than he looks. His family's provider since the death of his father, he's plenty smart enough to see through lies and false leaders; he knows when something's going on that nobody is telling.

But will that be enough to keep him alive... in a world of gods, monsters and valkyries?

Svana is a daughter of the goddess Freya. A chooser of the slain, a valkyrie. She and her sisters scour the battlefields to find dead heroes for Valhalla's halls. Skinny beardless Tog isn't anyone's typical pick... but then Svana isn't your typical valkyrie.

The odds of an untested young warrior escaping a demigoddess and surviving a viking-era odyssey pursued by raiders and worse seem impossible. But Tog knows that his family need him... and, together with the wilderness skills he learned from his lost father, that might just get him home...

Winter Of The Valkyrie - a thrilling, brutal and original mythic-fantasy pageturner you should not miss!
