    About this series

    The Vinland Viking Saga: Book 1

    History set her fate in stone…

    Murderer. Mercenary. Temptress.

    Trickster. Traitor. Thief.

    But under a hammer that falls like thunder, stone will always shatter.

    So with her voice she lights the forge.

    The Voyage of Freydis sings the silenced tale of Freydis Eiriksdottir, the first and only woman to lead a Viking voyage across the Atlantic in this tempestuous retelling of an ancient Icelandic saga set at the dawn of the 11th century.

    Content notice: spousal abuse.

    ‘Anyone who loves Vikings and historical fiction definitely should pick up this book’ Emily, NetGalley reviewer

    ‘Very lyrically written, I felt as if I was reading a song’ Tiffany, NetGalley reviewer

    ‘As a lover of mythology and historical fiction I knew immediately I was going to like this book – and I’m pleased to say I not only liked it but I LOVED it!’ Libby, NetGalley reviewer

    ‘Tamara Goranson’s writing really shines here. I felt the cold, heard the wind, flinched with the blows – that takes a lot of skill’ Dawn, NetGalley reviewer
