The Golden Wolf: A Novel
A new generation draws its own battle lines as the author of The Half-DrownedKing "weaves the conclusion of her masterful epic" inspired by Norse sagas (Kirkus).
This compelling conclusion to the Golden Wolf trilogy recreates Viking-age Scandinavia in all its danger, passion, power, and glory—a world of brutality and myth, loyalty and betrayal, where shifting alliances and vengeance can build kingdoms…and can tear them down.
Ragnvald has long seen King Harald as a golden wolf who will bring peace to Norway. And he is grateful to have his beloved sister Svanhild free from her evil former husband, now that she is one of Harald's many wives. Yet despite her freedoms, Svanhild is lonely and growing restless.
Meanwhile, Harald's heirs are also increasingly restless. Stepping back from his royal duties, he watches as his sons pursue their own ambitions. But Norway may no longer be large enough for so many would-be kings.
A growing rebellion pits Ragnvald and his sons against enemies old and new, and a looming tragedy threatens to divide the hardened warrior from Harald and all who care for him. Across the sea, Svanhild, too, wrestles with a painful decision, risking the dissolution of her fragile new family as she desperately tries to save it . . .
