I was pleasantly surprised by this novel. I bought it expecting a science fiction tale and instead discovered a very good historical fiction set in 792 A.D. This is the story of Bran Snorrison, a Viking carver and his journey across the ocean and continents of the 18th century. This is a story of magic and myths and the developing Christian beliefs. A wonderful, entertaining tale you can't help but enjoy!
