Finished two more sagas. One set in the 5th century and featuring guest appearances from Beowulf, sorcereress and berserkers. The other set in the 11th century with the climatic battles at hastings and stamford bridge.
2022 was probably the hardest year of my life. I quit a job, lived in Iceland, wrote another book (maybe two?), started a few new jobs, climbed mountains, got Covid, moved out, touched places where vikings walked, learned to drive, took a comic making class, made friends, lost friends, tabled at my first convention, wrote some more, then sprained my ankle.
Good book for those already interested in the topic. Some chapters tend to drag but it depends on what specific details you are interested.
Remember when I used to post books on here? Yeah neither do I.
2nd Day at Fanquest!! Come visit me! Come get your dark fantasy fix!
