About this series
Five shiploads of Vikings against one.
This isn't her first battle with such steep odds, but this is Dyrfinna's first as commander -- and she doesn't want to see her crew be killed off by a much greater foe before they get a chance to revenge their friend Thora.
But some of these foes are called the Child-Killers, led by the bloody-minded Nauma, who glories in dealing pain and death.
Dyrfinna and her crew manage to escape to an island in order to better defend themselves as their ship goes up in flames behind them.
Here they make their final stand, surrounded by the enemy. If the rest of the Queen's fleet doesn't find them, and soon, Dyrfinna's crew is going to die here. She's doing everything in her power to keep them all alive so she can revenge Thora and bring everybody home -- but on this haunted island, the past keeps coming alive, and the dead will not rest.
Even worse, Dyrfinna discovers that, if her crew dies, these child-killers plan to travel on to Skala to slaughter their loved ones ... including Dyrfinna's mother and little sister, who she swore to protect.
Set in a new, Norse-inspired world, and packed with magic, adventure, and dragons, A BLAZE OF VALKYRIES is the book #2 in an epic new fantasy saga from Melinda R. Cordell.

Dyrfinna and her sword-friends only want to mourn their friend Thora, the Queen's daughter, after she died after visiting her husband-to-be, King Varinn. But when, after her burial, Thora walks into the banquet hall and starts killing men, all Hel breaks loose. Only Dyrfinna is able to return her dead friend to her eternal rest – but not before hearing a terrifying story from her lips. The only recourse for this awful deed is revenge. Dyrfinna is more than ready. But there's more at stake than Dyrfinna dreams of. A dragon saves her life and hints at a war to come that's greater than the one they're about to plunge into. Fate follows in the wake of these warriors. Set in a new, Norse-inspired world, and packed with magic, adventure, and dragons, THE FLAME OF BATTLE begins an epic new fantasy saga from Melinda R. Cordell.
