Vengeance of the Damned

Olaf's Saga, Book 5

De: Eric Schumacher

Narrado por: Gildart Jackson

Vengeance of the Damned is the gripping, final novel of Schumacher's award-winning series chronicling the life and adventures of Olaf Tryggvason, one of Norway's most controversial kings.

It is AD 995. Driven from his homeland as a lad, the long-wandering King Olaf Tryggvason has finally returned to Norway with an army at his back and vengeance on his mind. But Olaf does not just want to rule the Northern kingdom. He has more ambitious plans for the realm, and will put to the sword anyone who stands in his way.

His cruel campaign sets him on a collision course with his former oath-brother-turned-enemy, Torgil. Unable to escape the coming clash, Torgil and his band of outcasts face the new king and his battle-hardened warriors. From the land of the Swedes, to the islands of the Vik, and finally, to a place called Svold off the coast of Denmark, Olaf and Torgil match their wills and their cunning in this brutal, action-packed conclusion to Olaf's Saga.

Great series and superb performance

The final book in Olaf’s Saga is an outstanding ending to an entertaining series. Each book held its own with a unique storyline and awesome performance by Gildart Jackson.

As a fan of Jackson’s I seek out his work, this is one of his best performances. He understood the assignment well by displaying the well written characters like Torgil and Olaf with great depth and intensity.

Having thoroughly enjoyed Schumacher’s fantastic series with Jackson’s brilliant performance, I look forward to what comes next for each of them.
