Description:
Wolfgang Hohlbein's narrative of the greatest of the German myths - a thrilling epic of revenge and magic, love and death Sventeen dark winters have gone by in the old royal fortress on Iceland since Siegfried, the dragon slayer, fell victim to the betrayal of Hagen of Tronje. Far away from the treasure of the Nibelungs, far away from the disintegrating Roman empire, Gernot and Else are bringing up the son of the secret inheritor of Xanten. But the call of the blood reaches the boy when he becomes a man: the gods demand of him that he claims what is his due by fate. When the ""dark hordes"" invade Iceland, Siegfried reaches for his father's legendary sword – and begins an odyssey across a continent that is being crushed by a war between Christianity in its early days and the ancient powers of magic. Siegfried searches for the key to his origins in endless battles and behind cowardly intrigues – and finds it in the arms of a poor woman … Press ""Wolfgang Hohlbein.
