I just finished Lords of the North. I am smitten and you must write faster! :-) Seriously, I have long been interested in early England and the Norse Sagas. I actually drove to Lans aux Meadows to see the Viking ruins years ago. You make this period come alive. Is there a general history of this period you could recommend? There are SO MANY books about this period. Thank you and have a cool one at the Island House. Harry Haff
