About this listen

From the author of Echoes of the Runes comes a thrilling new timeslip novel, filled with adventure and romance, perfect for fans of Barbara Erskine, Diana Gabaldon and Vikings.

Separated by time. Brought together by fate.

Indulging her fascination for the Viking language and getting her hands dirty with an archaeological dig is just what Linnea Berger needs to take her mind off her recent trauma. Uncovering an exquisite brooch, she blacks out reading the runic inscription, only to come to surrounded by men in Viking costume who seem to take re-enactment very seriously.

Lost and confused, Linnea finds herself in the power of Hrafn, a Viking warrior who claims her as his thrall and takes her on a treacherous journey across the seas to sell her for profit. As they set sail, she is forced to confront the unthinkable: she has somehow travelled back to the ninth century.

Linnea is determined to find a way back to her own time, but there's a connection forming with Hrafn that she can't shake. Underneath his hard exterior, he is brave, clever and caring - not to mention attractive. Can she resist the call of the runes and accept her destiny lies here with Hrafn?

Don't miss Christina's pacy, evocative and romantic dual-time novel, Echoes of the Runes, out now.

Bought this on a whim and wasn't expecting much. Just finished and can honestly say it was one of the best books I've ever listened to. The narrator makes you feel as though you are right there with the Vikings, whether you're on a boat in the middle of the Baltic Sea or trying to trade a piece of silver to a merchant. The romance between Lanier and Hrafn is one that will make you gasping and smiling at the same time. And don't even get me started on the ending! Very unexpected!!
A must read for any one who needs an escape.

Time travels you to a new world

Loved this story! I’ve read the first one and just had to get this, couldn’t find the book and I’m delighted that there’s more!
Love the time travel element and the happy ending! It’s also interesting to read about some history and learn from it. Didn’t quite realise the Vikings travelled far & wide!
Can’t wait to get the next one!
