Keep your wits as sharp as your sword. Ansgar knows the kind of lore that can keep a man alive as he travels the North. Tales of gods and monsters, heroes and dragons—the stories any good skald knows.
Trade a good story to a raven, and Ansgar can find the right path through the forest. Assuming the raven isn't as difficult as this one. The right direction has a warm fire and a horn full of mead waiting. The wrong direction has wolves the size of ponies. Or worse.
If he can outsmart the raven, he can find his way. Until he runs into something even more dangerous than giant wolves.
The Skald is a prequel story to Gregory Amato's Norse fantasy series Spear of the Gods, where the myths, magic, and monsters of the Viking Age are real.
