The Storm God's Gift Jerry Autieri

The Norse gods stare down upon their people, indifferent to suffering and loss. The three Norns weave the fate of men's lives at the foot of the World Tree, uncaring of what ill patterns they shape. When the gods grant a boon, a thorn is always contained therein. Jarl Ulfrik Ormsson is at the height of his power, dominating the Frankish countryside and earning glory and riches for all beneath his banner. Yet alliances within the kingdoms of Frankia are shifting and new threats loom. Agreeing to lend his military prowess to Norsemen in the south, Ulfrik leads twenty picked men to the blackest thread ever woven in any man's fate. He travels south to find destiny and death. He travels to find the storm god's gift.
