Another fascinating historical fiction book from Poul Anderson. Heir of Darkness His father had been slain in a heinous ambush: his grandfather in an act of brotherly murder. His blood was of the Skjoldungs ... and even the most unremarkable seers knew his life would be as sweeping as it was savage. From the rolling midnight years before his birth, to the unshakeable love and twisted fates tht brought him to the throne of his ravaged Icelandic kingdom. Hrolf Kraki's magnificent saga is the story of an age of runes and ravishments, of blades and omens ... and of a man who ruled and was rules by an inescapable destiny.
