Reseña del libro "Starkad the Outcast (en Inglés)"
Blessed by Odin, cursed by Thor, Starkad was doomed to wander the world for three lifespans, committing a villainous act in each. Hated by the people, loved by murderers and tyrants, he sought only peace, but his destiny was endless war... The legendary viking warrior battles his way through three more savage adventures in the lands of Norse mythology: From his banishment to his exploits on the high seas, Starkad's legend grows in three short stories chronicling his wanderings. In "The Laws of the Vikings," he grapples with the brutal realities of Viking law. In "Shapeshifter," he encounters a being of mythic power. And in "Sons of Frey," he faces a challenge that will test his loyalty and his courage. But when Starkad becomes a trusted retainer of the sea king brothers Haki and Hagbard, his thirst for glory and plunder takes him to new heights. Together, they conquer Sweden and build a kingdom, but Starkad's restlessness and love of adventure soon lead them back to the Viking way. As they sail the East Way, Starkad and Hagbard's adventures in war and love threaten to undo all that Haki has built. And when Starkad becomes land warden of an empire that includes Saxon and Danish dominions, he is torn between his duty to keep the peace and his desire for vengeance. In this epic saga of adventure, betrayal, and destiny, Gavin Chappell brings to life the world of the Vikings with vivid detail and thrilling action. With Starkad the Outcast, readers will follow the journey of a hero who defies fate and makes his own legend.
