Description
The Varangian is a gripping historical novel that tells the story of two Housecarls who, forced from England by the Normans, embark on a perilous journey to join the Varangian Guard in Byzantium. There, they must fight against the Normans from Italy, as well as the Empire's enemies and treacherous Byzantine politics. The book culminates in the battle that ultimately drove the Normans back to Italy, painting a vivid picture of the dying world of the Saxon warriors.
