Description

In tenth century Norway, two young women's lives become inextricably linked by a blood oath. Oddny and Gunnhild, from different worlds, are bound together by a promise to help one another no matter the cost. When Oddny's farm is destroyed and her sister Signy is kidnapped, she sets out on a perilous journey to save them both. Gunnhild, who has fled her home years ago to learn the ways of a witch in the far north, is on a path towards her destiny as queen. But when their paths converge again, the bonds that hold them together are tested in ways they could never have foreseen. This rich and searching novel explores themes of magic, history, and sworn sisterhood, weaving a powerful tale of two women's struggles and triumphs. As Oddny and Gunnhild navigate the treacherous landscape of Viking Age Norway, their oath becomes a source of strength and resilience in the face of adversity. With its vivid prose and immersive world-building, this novel is a compelling exploration of female friendship and the power of unbreakable bonds.
