A thrilling work of popular history that gives a new perspective on the Viking-Anglo Saxon conflicts and brings the bloody period to life.
In the eleventh century, the rulers of the lands surrounding the North Sea are all hungry for power. To gain power, they need soldiers. To get soldiers, they need silver. And to acquire silver, there is no better way than war and plunder. This vicious cycle draws all the lands of the north into a brutal struggle for supremacy and survival—a conflict that will shatter kingdoms and forge an empire.
The Wolf Age takes the reader on a thrilling journey through the bloody shared history of England and Scandinavia, and across early medieval Europe. From the wild Norwegian fjords to the wealthy cities of Muslim Andalusia, the narrative spans a fascinating and turbulent era.
Key Highlights:
- Warfare, plotting, backstabbing, and bribery: This period is rife with intrigue and conflict as rulers vie for dominance.
- Sagas and skaldic poetry: Tore Skeie skillfully weaves these elements with breathless dramatization to bring the era to vivid life.
- A vivid portrayal of Viking and Anglo-Saxon worlds: The book immerses readers in the dramatic and bloody struggles that defined the age.
This is a story of power, survival, and the relentless pursuit of dominance—a gripping tale that brings the Viking-Anglo Saxon conflicts into sharp focus.
