Odinn's Child is the stunning first volume in a captivating Viking trilogy, an epic historical adventure full of Norse mythology and bloodthirsty battles. The story begins in the year 1001 with the toddler, Thorgils Leiffson, son of Leif the Lucky and Thorgunna, arriving in Brattahlid, Greenland, to be raised by Gudrid. Thorgils is a rootless character of quicksilver intelligence and adaptability who has inherited his mother's ability of second sight. Virtually orphaned, he is raised by various mentors who teach him the ancient ways and warn him of the invasion of the 'White Christ' into the land of the 'Old Gods.' Guided by a restless quest for adventure and the wanderlust of his favored god, Odinn, his fortunes will take him into worlds of unimaginable danger and discovery, often leading him to the brink of death by execution, battle, disease, and shipwreck.
