Preview Viking's Sunset
The idea of Harald Sigurdson’s last voyage came to Henry Treece when a
young friend of his told him of the finding of the prow of a Viking
longship in a lake in North America. He set out to devise a story round
the kind of man who could make this incredible voyage from Scandinavia
to the then unknown continent.
This book is the story of how Harald and his friend Giant
Grummoch from The Road to Miklagard, set out in pursuit of marauding
Vikings who have raided their homesteads, but instead of catching Haakon
Redeye and his vicious companions, are swept by rough seas to far-off
Greenland. Here they are befriended by Eskimos, and then sail still
further westwards, to the land of the redskins, where Harald meets
warriors as proud as his own, and fights against treachery crueller than
death itself.
Vikings, there is a shatteringly vivid picture of the stark fate of
these early seafarers, and of their brave spirit.--preface
