Summary
Norway, AD 785. It began with the betrayal of a lord by a king....
King Gorm puts Jarl Harald's family to the sword but makes one fatal mistake - he fails to kill Harald's youngest son, Sigurd. His kin slain, his village seized and its people taken as slaves, Sigurd wonders if the gods have forsaken him. Hunted by powerful men, he is unsure who to trust, and yet he has a small band of loyal followers at his side.
With them - and with the help of the All-Father, Odin - he determines to make a king pay in blood for his treachery.
Using cunning and warcraft, Sigurd gathers together a fellowship of warriors - including his father's right-hand man, Olaf; Bram (whom men call Bear); Black Floki, who wields death with a blade; and the shield maiden Valgerd, who fears no man - and convinces them to follow him.
For whether Ódin is with him or not, Sigurd will have vengeance. And neither men nor gods had best stand in his way....
God of Vengeance is a must-listen for all who enjoy thrilling, action-packed fiction - from Bernard Cornwell to George R. R. Martin's Game of Thrones.

Brilliant
One of my favourite set of books along with the Raven blood eye ones by the same author.
Brilliant voice, very descriptive and an incredible story. Feels like I’ve been watching a film rather than reading (or listening). Love it.

A fabulous story brilliantly read! I've listened to all three in the series now and loved them. Almost makes being stuck on the M25 worth while!

Excellent Story reader
Narration was very good, the story skipped along, and I'm really interested in the characters. Can't wait to listen to the next one now!

I've read the first so will have to read them all!
Would you be willing to try another book from Giles Kristian? Why or why not?
Yes, the next book in the series, got ... to ... finish ...
Any additional comments?
Fast paced, lots of gore, lots of fighting, vikings everywhere. A very easy listen Turn your brain off, and let the blood lust flow over you. This is not a great book, I wish I had not started, but I know that I will listen to them all now, it is strangely addictive.
