About this listen

Sea Paths is the first book in The Book of Bera trilogy. It’s a tale of love and resilience in a cruel landscape. Young Viking Bera’s gift of sight and healing is scorned by her brutal folk, yet they survive because of her leadership at the ice edge of the known world.

Set at the time of huge Viking expansion when folk face famine, plague, and slavery, Sea Paths was one of The Guardian newspaper’s top five SFF books in 2017.

Critic reviews

“The setting is not that of some generic feudal/pastoral fantasy, but a lovingly detailed Norse land that Wilde brings to startling life...an impressive debut.” (The Guardian)

Brilliantly read by the author, this is a gripping story set in an unforgiving landscape, Bera - a strong but vulnerable young woman - is a protagonist with real depth. Love it!

Enthralling Viking fantasy

I loved the beautiful nature writing interwoven with the gritty characters and ways of life. For me it was one of my favourite childhood books, Why the Whales Came, meets one of my favourite adult TV dramas, The Vikings.

Wonderful characters and descriptions of nature
