The Viking Saga

Into this breathtaking trilogy is woven the true spirit of the Vikings, who great thirst for travelling the seas took them on incredible voyages in defiance of icy waters, terrible hardships and bloodthirsty resistance.

It is AD 780. Viking's Dawn sees a young Norse boy, Harald Sigurdson, set sail for the Hebrides in the longship 'Nameless'. The goal: to plunder the helpless coastal villages of Britain.

Just five years later, undeterred by his first desperate journey, the dauntless warrior puts to sea once again, in The Road to Miklagard - this time lured by the news of a fabulous hoard of treasure.

After a lifetime struggling with the bitter waves, Harald embarks on his last voyage in Viking's Sunset, this time not for gain but to seek vengeance on a blood enemy.

The Just So Stories and The Jungle Book by Rudyard Kipling have always held a fascination for me

—— HRH Prince of Wales

Rudyard Kipling laid the foundations of modern children's literature with works such as The Jungle Book... wild, magnificent stories that felt as though they'd always existed, stories people might have told each other in the caves
