Sworn Brothers, A Tale Of The Early Days Of Iceland

Sworn Brothers, A Tale of the Early Days of Iceland

by Gunnar Gunnarsson

In the early days of Iceland, two young kinsmen, bound by blood and kinship, undergo the ancient ritual of blood brotherhood, pledging loyalty and sacrifice to the Norse gods Odin and Thor. Their journey takes them aboard dragon ships, navigating perilous seas and encountering the challenges of Viking exploration. Their travels lead them to distant lands including Norway, the Orkneys, England, Ireland, and the Isle of Man, where they face life-or-death situations, enduring storms, battles, and the ever-present threat of the sea. The story explores the complex dynamics of their relationship, as the bond of brotherhood is tested by the harsh realities of their adventures and the demands of their sworn oaths.
