____________________
She has mixed blood. She is reminded of it every day. Half Scottish and half Norse, she has always been a bit of an outcast. She takes refuge in the arts of swordsmanship and archery, something those around her deem unfit for a girl.
When men from the north come back to the Isles again, the King of the North decides to take Lagertha back to his homeland to be his wife.
She is savvy enough to persuade him that she should be set free from his wedding plans, but The King of North has another idea in mind. He intends to make the myth of the shield-maiden real and there is nothing she can do to stop him.
Caught up in a bloody war between clans, Lagertha must decide if she is willing to go against all she believes and abandon her home to protect her friends or if she will leave her new life behind to return to the one she was torn from.

Year of Our Lord 1013. Francia is lost. Capetians usurpers sit the throne, fattened on treachery, while the last daughter of the Carolingian dynasty rots in exile. Emma of Normandy now lives beneath false names in forgotten keeps, guarded by liars who whisper of destiny but treat her like coin to be spent. When her enemies draw near, Emma flees across the sea to Denmark. There, she finds no peace, only more plots. King Sweyn Forkbeard sees in her a weapon to wield, a prize to marry to his young and untested son Canute. But the journey to Jelling is long, and her escort is led by Askeladd, a mercenary with veiled motives. Among them is Thorfinn, a young warrior burdened by vengeance, tasked with guarding a princess who refuses to be protected. As old empires die and new kings rise, Emma walks a knife's edge between pawn and player. The blood she's spilled cannot be undone, and the future she once killed for slips further from her reach. In the land of the Normanni, nothing is sacred... and none shall inherit without blood. Note: This is a work of historical fiction. While vaguely inspired by the real Emma of Normandy, the events herein are wholly reimagined through the brutal, tragic lens of Vinland Saga. It contains graphic violence, mature themes, and a stylized prose reflective of its medieval setting.Completa
