Adversity

The Viking Tales

By: W. J. May

Narrated by: Kathleen Starr Hall

They say some people are favored by the gods. Others need to make their own luck.

When Cora wandered out of the woods during a winter storm, she was on the brink of death. Lost in a strange land, with nothing but her unborn child, she threw herself at the mercy of the gods. But her story wasn't finished just yet, and the fates had other plans.

A kindly woman delivers the child safely and gives her the chance to start anew. The troubles of the past are safely buried, a shining future is within reach. When a handsome warrior in the king's guard comes to town a few months later, the two begin to fall madly in love.

But Cora has a deadly secret. And secrets have a way of coming to light.

Every legend has to start somewhere…In a time when Vikings clashed against Romans, and whispers of magic held back the tides, a young woman staggered out of the forest and gave birth to a special child…

Prequel: Cora’s Story

I have read maybe 3 books in this series and I’m loving it so far. This is a prequel story featuring Liv’s mother, Cora.
