Publisher's summary

Born hearing the call of Valkyries. Dreaming of distant shores. Torn between the past and the future. Destined to become a legend.

Iceland, 976—Freydis Eiriksdottir, born to a völva mother and berserker father, lives a quiet life on her remote farmstead. Busy dreaming of the sea and haunted by the loss of her mother, she has no idea what the Norns have in store for her. When her father, Eirik the Red, marries the daughter of a powerful chieftain, the course of Freydis's life changes forever.

Deciding that Freydis would be better off with the Gothar, Eirik sends his only daughter to serve the Norse gods. Freydis learns the ancient ways and discovers that her world is endangered—a rising new religion threatens to reshape everything.

Amidst the uncertainty, a distant land beckons Freydis. However, as Freydis forms a close bond with Brien, an Irish thrall, she confronts the harsh realities of their world.

Listeners will relish this sweeping Viking saga that chronicles the life of Freydis Eiriksdottir. Dive into The Vinland to Valhalla Saga, a thrilling Viking historical fantasy series by New York Times bestselling author Melanie Karsak.

Love this one, like all other M. Karsak books

I have listened to almost all of Melanie’s books and they never disappoint. The one is just as good. Looking forward to book 2 being available on Audible. Narrator did an excellent job!

No spoiler review

I love everything Melanie Karsak writes. I was disappointed that Lesley Parkin wasn’t narrating, however, this narrator, Sofia Engstrand, was very good and definitely did this story justice. I am excited for the next book!
