About this listen

A horde of battle-hardened, ferocious Nordic warriors. A Pictish village at the mercy of its enemies. A harrowing bargain struck for nine fearful and reluctant brides.

Delivered into Viking hands, claimed and conquered, each bride must accept that she belongs to her new master. But, as wedding nights bring surrender to duty, will fierce lovers also surrender their hearts?

The Highland wilderness is savage, life is perilous, and the future uncertain, but each Viking has sworn protection, and there are no lengths to which a man will not go to safeguard the woman he loves.

Begin the journey here....

Enter a world of suspense, seduction, and adventure, told against the forbidding backdrop of medieval Scotland. Journey together with indomitable heroes and intrepid heroines, as they discover that the raging storms of fear and passion can transform into enduring devotion.

Good, but way too short. Sadly that is still way better than other stories I have been listening to this week.

why so short?

This is mainly background and getting familiar with main character, not a steamy encounter in sight! I wished the narrator had been Scottish it would have been more authentic. All in all I enjoyed this short introduction it was just getting to the good part and I was left wanting more.

Promising start to series

Wow! This was so good. The prorogue is brilliantly composed, it cleverly sets the basis of the premise for the series. Ashe Barker captured the period flawlessly, captivating her readers/listeners from the get-go. There is no doubt in my mind that I'll be continuing with the series. Emma Parry's narration was excellent, she breathed life into the characters. Overall, the Vikings is a fabulous novella, one highly recommend.

Brilliant!

I enjoyed this book very much. I will definitely get the next book as i wanted this one to go on and on. It was brave of the widow to approach the Vikings on the beach, and then propose what she did to the visitors. The next book will be awesome.when it continues with wedding’s and new lives. Thank you very much Miss Barker. Keep writing. Xxx

This prologue is a short novella that takes the listener immediately into the action and sets up an intriguing Viking series.

Eithne is a Pictish woman who goes to bargain with the Vikings when they arrive at her village. Brandr is the Jarl who agrees to consider Eithne's unorthodox proposal. Many other characters are introduced within the prologue as we get our first taste of the Viking Surrender series.

This is an absorbing short, that provides an entertaining introduction to the stories in the series to come.

The narration from Emma Parry was excellent, and worked really well in evoking the drama in this Viking world.
