Overview

""This was a man accursed: fierce, mightily cruel, and savage . . . "" --Gesta Normannorum Ducum. He lost his glory. He lost his son. Now, he'll risk everything to etch his name into legend. Two years after the sack of Paris in 845 A.D., Viking warlord Hasting is drowning in drink and disgrace. Ragnar's name lives on in the Skalds' songs--but his? Forgotten. Abandoned by his wife, robbed of his riches, and stripped of his son, Hasting is a broken man. Until a chance meeting with his old comrade, Bjorn Ironsides, ignites a reckless ambition: to outshine every Viking before him and take the greatest prize of all--Miklagard. Constantinople. The Great City of the East. From the storm-tossed seas of the north to the shadowed halls of the Byzantine Empire, Hasting must confront brutal enemies, old ghosts, and the fatal cost of chasing immortality. The Fell Deeds of Fate is the explosive fourth installment of The Saga of Hasting the Avenger, a gripping new Viking epic packed with war, betrayal, redemption--and one man's quest to become a legend. Perfect for fans of Bernard Cornwell, Giles Kristian, Conn Iggulden, Peter Gibbons, James L. Nelson, Linnea Hartsuyker, and Robert Low.
