Valkyrie Rising

Viking Blood and Blade Saga, Book 5

De: Peter Gibbons

Narrado por: Paul Metcalfe

If you like Bernard Cornwell, Conn Iggulden, Simon Scarrow, and David Gemmell, you will love this Viking adventure saga packed with battles, vengeance, blood, and gore.

878 AD, Norway. The fight to secure Harald Fairhair’s throne is over, but one last battle sends a crew of Viking Warriors on a desperate, blood-soaked quest.

Hundr, a Northman with a dog's name...a crew of battle hardened warriors...and a voyage that will determine the fate of Ragnarok itself.

The crew of the warship Seaworm sail the Whale Road across Viking Europe in search of a spear said to have been forged for Odin himself. Ragnhild, Hundr’s sword-sister and Valkyrie Priestess, must recover the mythical weapon if she is to be restored to her order. The Burned Man stands in their way, a vicious warlord bent on vengeance who will stop at nothing to kill Hundr and his old friend Einar the Brawler.

Hundr must join the war for King Alfred’s nascent Kingdom of England and venture home, to the great city of Novgorod. Can he survive brutal attacks and vicious shield wall battles in this fast paced adventure with striking characters and bloodthirsty action?

Valkyrie Rising continues the unmissable Viking historical fiction saga series which began with award-winning author Peter Gibbons' debut novel Viking Blood and Blade.

Just ok

The story was not as good as the rest of the series, but it was ok. The narrator was pretty bad.

Good book but…..

I really enjoy this series of books. I think they’re very well written. This one however I did not care for the narrator. He kept mispronouncing words and it was kind of bothering me.
The story however it was great the characters are awesome. I just preferred the guy that read the first few books.

Worst Narrator in 45 years of audio books

This is the absolute worst narration of any audio book I’ve ever heard. It’s the literally horrible.

Disappointing

I feel that this story is rushed always going to a theme demonstrated throughout the other four. This may have been tolerable if not for the narrator. I’m am disappointed that one found him fine to rush to get this narrated I would have preferred a wait for a decent one if none had been available

Narrator annoying- be warned

The narrator is so annoying. His constant mispronunciation drove me crazy. His weird and unnecessary accents was very distracting and took away from a great story.
