    Summary

    After a devastating winter, the warring tribes of Berserkers and Hooligans forge an unlikely alliance to save their people from poverty and starvation. United in purpose, they sweep across the northeastern Frankish realm, bringing war and terror to the local villagers.

    Fourteen winters earlier, the pagan wife of Veltheim’s village priest gives birth to a girl: Irmina. She grows up in an age steeped in dark superstition, which her father battles with merciless zeal. The strangeness of her nature and the Saxon blood of her mother make her an outcast among her own people. Just as her devilish curiosity threatens to become her undoing, the village of Veltheim falls victim to a crime so unprecedented it will change Irmina’s fate forever.

    Since the death of his mother and unborn sister, silence has reigned between Snotlout and his father. Spitelout knows not what to do with his overzealous son and prefers to avoid his paternal duties altogether. Yet when he sets out on a raid to the southern lands, Snotlout could never have foreseen that the scrawny, unremarkable girl his father drags home as war booty would change his view of the world forever.

    After all, she is nothing more than a slave
