Publisher's summary

A kingdom without a crown.

A boy forsaken by his God.

A warrior bent on revenge.

After the bloody Battle of Jelling, Denmark’s throne lies empty and chaos reigns as Jarls jostle for power.

Sven survives the bloodshed only to return home to find Ribe sacked by those he trusted and Charles, a pawn in a much bigger political game, kidnapped.

Consumed by the loss of Charles, Sven is shocked by the arrival of the Abbess Hildegard, daughter of his nemesis King Louis of East Francia, who seeks the whereabouts of Charles, her son, and also the cross of Charlemagne.

But whilst others want revenge for the chaos Sven has caused, Denmark burns and Sven must stand in the shield wall one more time if he is to survive and rescue his grandson.

Outnumbered and outmaneuvered, Sven and Charles must put their fate in the hands of the gods if they ever want to see each other again.

Critic reviews

'Donovan Cook has quickly turned into a storyteller worthy of the greatest Viking Skalds! The Charlemagne series is a joy of superb character development, secrecy and deception, and of course thrilling Viking battles. Highly recommended for any fan of the shield wall.' (Peter Gibbons)

Loved it!

I normally have no interest in this period of history, but I happened to stumble upon Donovan Cook’s first book in this series and was immediately interested after just listening to the sample. I have enjoyed all three books now. Donovan Cook really knows his stuff. His research shows, and the books have made me want to find out more on my own, which is what historical fiction should do, I think. The narrator is perfect. His voice just fits the characters so well and really enhances the story. The characters are well developed, and we root for Sven and Charles and the rest of the good guys. I can’t wait for the next one!
