A debt draws Ulv into an old feud

Set in the Viking age, *Skald* brings together two strands of danger: Ulv, a storyteller and warrior, faces King Halvdan the Black’s demand for debts and the old feud it draws him into, while Julia confronts the return of an enemy threatening her and those she loves. Their separate trials place loyalty, survival and the consequences of difficult choices at the center of the story. The premise pairs political obligation and personal conflict with the saga’s promised shield-walls and battle, making the book’s historical setting part of the pressure on both characters.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Teens and young adults interested in Viking-age historical fiction.
  • Readers who enjoy stories combining battle and feud with personal stakes.
  • Those interested in Norse-inspired adventure featuring both a warrior-storyteller and a woman confronting an old enemy.

A simple message. A chaotic journey. A harrowing battle.When a messenger arrives at Ulv's farm with King Halvdan the Black's demand for debts, Ulv expects a minor inconvenience. But as he grapples with the king's ultimatum, Ulv's talents as both storyteller and warrior are tested like never before. Fate draws him into the midst of an old feud, and soon he faces a battle that threatens not only his life but his very soul.

Meanwhile, Julia confronts her own trials when an old enemy resurfaces, endangering her life and those she loves. Can she find a way to save them all while grappling with choices that could reshape their shared destiny?

As enemies close in from all sides, Ulv and Julia must prevail against overwhelming odds or risk losing everything they hold dear.
