Olga of Kyiv

Princess Warrior

Olga of Kyiv could be called the mother of Christianity, yet her life was far from saintly. When her husband was murdered in a most gruesome way, she vowed revenge and executed it with a hardness that few could comprehend. Olga was left to protect their only son, who would become Grand Prince, if he were to live long enough to take the title. Left to rule a violent world, Olga found a way to earn the loyalty of her people. Still, every day brought challenges, including an enormous secret that could never be revealed. How did this woman become a saint? The answer is found in the quest for redemption, the foundation of faith that she instilled in her grandson, and the miracle that followed her death.
