Swords of Good Men by Snorri Kristjansson

At first I will admit it's not the historical for everyone. This is about war, fighting, a siege, death. You get the idea.
Ulfar comes with his cousin to Stenvik. And he is not the only one. King Olav is coming there too, and others to plunder and kill. But before that Ulfar falls for a mystery woman (yes those things can never end well). And we gets to see the tension in the city. It was a brutal time after all.
The raiders and King do not come at once. We get to see city life, the raiders planning and King Olav telling people his way or the highway. Yeah, I have never been a fan of those who say this religion is better, follow it or die. So I can't really be on his side then. Go back to your heathen ways Norway.
Ulfar, he was interesting. Because he starts of, not naive, but in a way yes. He grows and see the bloody side of things. It's not like he is a stranger to fighting but things will get messy in this town.
Vikings as they were. A time of Thor vs White Christ. Tensions in society and like always, people doing things they should not do.
And the end, rather evil wasn't it? I will not tell you but it certainly made me wonder what Ulfar is up to next.
