Anne, Shieldmaiden of Green Gables (Book I)

The beloved Anne of Green Gables series has captivated people for years and years, but this is not that series. This one imagines an Anne, who is alive and well, in a world populated by Vikings, Norsemen, and marauding bands of bandits. In this world our talkative and extremely imaginative red-headed girl must learn to fight with sword and axe under the tutelage of Matthew Cuthbert. This is not the Anne of Green Gables you've read of before. No, this one's better. Written in the style of other re-imagined classics such as Pride and Prejudice and Zombies and Abraham Lincoln Vampire Hunter, this book is sure to delight and possibly frighten fans of the original series, people who enjoy adventures tales, and, of course, Vikings.
