From SUNDAY TIMES bestselling author Kate Heartfield comes a glorious, lyrical retelling of one of Norse mythology's greatest epics Brynhild is a Valkyrie: shieldmaiden of the Allfather, chooser of the slain. But now she too has fallen, flightless in her exile. Gudrun is a princess of Burgundy, a daughter of the Rhine, a prize for an invading king - a king whose brother Attila has other plans, and a dragon to call upon. And in the songs to be sung, there is another hero: Sigurd, a warrior with a sword sharper than the new moon. As the legends tell, these names are destined to be lovers, fated as enemies. But here on Midgard, legends can be lies… For not all heroes are heroic, nor all monsters monstrous. And a shieldmaiden may yet find that love is the greatest weapon of all. - Norse mythology retelling- From a Sunday Times bestselling author- Author uses historical references Competition: Circe;Ariadne;Song of Achilles;Norse Mythology;Stone Blind;Elektra;Silence of the Girls;Sistersong;Atalanta;Gospel of Loki;Daughter of the Moon Goddess;Six Crimson Cranes.
