4.0

This is another tightly paced adventure with lots of action, suspense, drama, and emotion, but the location is further north, into a region of bitter cold and freezing seas, where the Gods are fighting each other.

Alyc and Magnus have been kidnapped by Arnon de Sant and taken North in pursuit of Lotta, who has been taken North with Ulrick Dyer and his wife, Bergit. On learning this, Jonas and Vik set out to get her and her children back, they are given a ship and crew by Reinar to help them achieve this. Unfortunately, some of the Gods intervene causing the ship to be lost, forcing Reinar to head North to try and rescue everyone.

This is another wonderful adventure that keeps your attention and interest from start to finish, with more than a few interesting twists and reveals along the way.
