The Falcon Queen

By Johanna Wittenberg

Book 2 in The Norsewomen Series. "...Wittenberg has a comfortable grasp on Viking culture, from practices preparing food for winter, weaponry and warcraft, as well as ship construction and repair. The varied women’s roles and their training as shield maidens are some of my favorite aspects of the series. Additionally, Asa and Hrolf both use magic to inhabit the bodies of animals, adding an enjoyable mystical layer to the story. The characters and time period come alive within Wittenberg’s prose, casting a spell on all who enter the halls of the Norsewomen series." Historical Novels Review
