The Wolf Hunt
(The Whale Road Chronicles Book 3)
By Tim Hodkinson
Iceland, AD 935
Einar Unnsson is destined to be great. When he fights, a frenzy comes upon him. It makes him lethal in battle – so lethal he just defeated the man his own father sent to kill him.
Now, with Einar exiled from his kingdom, his father turns his vengeance on Einar's mother – his escaped former bedslave. Yet Einar is in no position to protect her. He's made an enemy of the powerful King Eirik and must fight for his own life before he can save her.
Einar depends on the Wolf Coats, a band of fearsome, bloodthirsty warriors, but they're convinced the fates have cursed them. Will Einar's skill in battle be enough to save his mother? Or will the Wolf Coats' superstition destroy them all?
Review:
I was so excited to get my copy of the third book in The Whale Road Chronicles. I have throughly enjoyed every minute of this series, and with each book the writing and the story just gets better and better. As I have mentioned before in my previous reviews of this series, Hodkinson depiction of the era is fabulous. I really felt like I had stepped back in time.
This novel kept me up well past my bedtime, but it was so worth it. I absolutely loved every minute of it. I really hope someone makes this series into a television drama, as then it would reach a new audience who I know would love it just as much as I do.
