Summary:
Sigrid is a Shield-Maiden who yearns to get away from the restrictions of her father’s house and join the Sworn Men in an actual raiding expedition. When a little diplomatic party which includes members of the Shield-Brethren lands at her family’s holding on Gottland, the party’s second in control, Halldor, sees in Sigrid a vision of beauty and power that might challenge – and even destroy – many men. And when bloody chaos ensues at a close by Viking fishing village, Sigrid proves she has more than mere talent: she’s Vor – the destiny view – an amazing concentrate in fighting that pieces her apart from nearly all who have ever resided and places her in the rare company of the best possible Shield-Brethren. But mainly because Sigrid and her family confront her otherworldly capability, will it end up being a gift to become celebrated, or an affliction to be cured?
