Author of ‘Bound By Blood’, Book Two of the Kingship Saga
CAN YOU TELL US WHAT YOUR BOOK IS ABOUT?
The Norse settlers in the Sudreys have enjoyed good times for a few years. But change is in the air. In a dramatic shipwreck, the king, the queen, the bishops and the flower of the nobility all lose their lives. The island kingdom finds itself all at once without government or leaders.
Young Torleif is thrown into a conflict he is ill-prepared for. His father’s overweening ambition thrusts the clan into a bloody feud. Torleif needs to dig deep to find the courage to face his enemy’s sword in hand, but he has no weapon against his father’s hatred.
Matters come to a head when the King of Scots decides to take back the Sudreys, which have been under Norse rule for 300 years. Torleif is drawn into the conflict over the island kingdom. His blade running with the blood of his foes, he discovers that he has no fear of death. But can he win back the throne, as his father had desired?
WHAT SETS YOUR BOOK APART FROM THE COMPETITION?
This story is about people who lived and historic events that took place on the Isle of Man and in Scotland. It is a story about love, betrayal, superstition and war the medieval way. It was originally published as a hardcover in Norwegian first, but I split it in two, had it translated and uploaded both versions on Amazon.Â
TELL US A LITTLE BIT ABOUT YOURSELF…
I am an established author. “Kingship” is my first historical novel series, packed with thrills and intrigue from start to finish. Based on historical events from medieval times in Scandinavia and the Kingdom of the Isles, it introduces us to real historical figures. My enthusiasm for the subject and my in-depth knowledge of the period are unequaled. I have even personally participated in jousts – and have hosted five European Jousting Championships in Denmark.
