The Vikings are laying siege to Paris. As the houses on the banks of the Seine burn a debate rages in the Cathedral on the walled island of the city proper. The situation is hopeless.

The Vikings want the King's daughter, in return they will spare the rest of the city. Can the king call himself a king if he doesn't do everything he can to save his people? Can he call himself a man if he doesn't do everything he can to save his daughter?

His conscience demands one thing, the demands of state another. And the Church has its own agenda, in this fight against the godless Northmen. But the Vikings have their own gods. And outside their camp a terrifying brother and sister, priests of Odin have their own agenda. An agenda of darkness and madness. And in the shadows a wolfman lurks. And a wolf too.

M.D. Lachlan's stunning epic of mad Gods, Viking and the myth of Fenrir, the wolf destined to kill Odin at Ragnorok powers forward into a new territories of bloody horror, unlikely heroism, dangerous religion and breathtaking action.
