And Helgi Blackbeard, the king's captain-of-arms, had plotted to marry her, for his own sick pleasure. The events took place during the king's stay at Vik, Sigve's homestead.

To readers: The Slayer Rune is in its final stages
of editing and proof-reading, and a Kindle version will be published
on Amazon in a matter of weeks. The Lethal Oath will soon follow, and
I have also started drafting a third book in the series with the
working title Gold. In the mean time you can read excerpts here on
the blog, and for those really interested I may have a special offer
at the end of chapter three.
