Daughters of Valhalla
Three Viking sisters. Three different fates. One epic quest for revenge.
Book One
Song of the Shieldmaiden
In Viking-age Scandinavia, a shieldmaiden must decide which is the more dangerous weapon: the sword or the heart?
When a cruel usurper steals their father’s throne, three Viking sisters set upon a quest to save their village.
Svanhild, the eldest, dreams of being a shieldmaiden. But there is only one way to save her family from the enemy’s axe: promise herself to his son. By day, she is forced to spend time with her future husband — a man she is determined to hate. By night, she secretly trains for revenge with her father’s legendary sword.
Yet as Svanhild learns more about the man she agreed to marry, the trickster god Loki plays games with her heart. While her sisters Haldis and Brynja find their own ways to fight for their family, Svanhild is torn between love and revenge.
Book Two
Whispers of a Sorceress
Abandoned as an infant. Cursed with strange markings. Plagued by visions she doesn’t understand.
Everyone in the Viking village of Kaldvik believes Haldis is a seeress with a unique connection to the Norse gods. But despite her training as a völva, she feels like little more than a disfigured outsider.
With her family suffering under the new jarl’s rule, Haldis is desperate to help them. But her visions leave her confused, rune readings go wrong, and her prayers to the gods seem to go unanswered.
Meanwhile, her eldest sister Svanhild prepares for revenge in the great city of Uppsala. And home in Kaldvik, her youngest sister Brynja is forced into a marriage that could either save or destroy their family.
When a mysterious new völva arrives, Haldis must decide whether to confront her past or hide from it. Can she make sense of her strange visions? And is there an even greater power she has yet to discover?
