Valravn

The old kings are dead. The powerful King Canute holds England in an iron grip, and in Norway, Olav Haraldsson has taken power. Torstein Jarl has withdrawn to Jomsborg, where he is once again leader of the brotherhood. Soon, Torstein’s headstrong son Ravntor clashes with the Wends in the south, and a battle-worn Torstein must once more set out in search of alliances. But this time, the task will prove difficult. It is a new age—the age of the Christian kings. And the Jomsvikings are no longer welcome in the halls of kings and jarls. Now chieftains and great farmers are forced to their knees before the cross of White Christ, and Torstein’s dream of reclaiming Vingulmork seems more distant than ever.

In Valravn, we gain a unique glimpse into a period when Christianity and the centralization of power dramatically transformed Northern Europe, and Torstein and his Jomsvikings must once again fight to preserve their ancient way of life and their freedom.
