Book Review of The Finnsburg Encounter

The Finnsburg Encounter
reviewed on + 154 more book reviews


In the midst of growing powers that threaten his people stands Finn, the Prince of Friesland. Marriage to a beautiful Danish Princess, subversion by ambitious nobles, and the coming of a simple monk, Willimond, servant of the True God, form the backdrop to this striking novel. The author beautifully recreates a lost time and the terrible events leading to the Battle of Finnsburg. Here faith and heroism mingle in a world between legend and history.
