Temido y rechazado por los habitantes de Abbotsend debido a su misterioso pasado y a su ojo del color de la sangre, ha crecido como aprendiz del viejo carpintero mudo que lo tomó bajo su protección después de que todos le diesen la espalda. Pero cuando llegan, de allende los mares, los invasores nórdicos para saquear la aldea, Osric es tomado prisionero y ve destruída así su nueva vida. El jefe de los vikingos, Sigurd el Afortunado, cree que las nornas han entrelazado el destino de este niño con el suyo. Inmerso en el mundo de los nórdicos y llevado por un insaciable deseo de aventuras, Osric se revela como un guerrero naural y crea un vínculo de sangre con Sigurd, quien lo bautiza Raven. A well written and brilliantly imagined story. The plot was easy to follow and engaging from start to finish, and the characters were amazingly fleshed out with flaws with the good, the bad and the ugly that really makes a character come to life. It wasn't perfect, but it was a good read nonetheless. A well written and brilliantly imagined story. The plot was easy to follow and engaging from start to finish, and the characters were amazingly fleshed out with flaws with the good, the bad and the ugly that really makes a character come to life. It wasn't perfect, but it was a good read nonetheless. A good solid Viking tale. Not as a deep on the history as, say, a Bernard Cornwell novel, or as powerfully mythic as, say, Poul Anderson's Hrolf Kraki's Saga, but very solid. Doesn't shy away from the harshness and cruelty of the Vikings, but a good adventure tale that paints an honest picture of them. aucune critique | ajouter une critique
