I am thrilled to announce today that my fifth novel and the second in the Olaf Saga series of books, will release on June 28th on Amazon in print and eBook formats. The novel, Sigurd’s Swords, tells the story of the future king of Norway, Olaf Tryggvason, and his time living and fighting in the war-torn kingdom of the Rus (what is today Russia, Belarus, and Ukraine).

Synopsis
It is AD 968 and ten summers since the noble sons of the North, Olaf Tryggvason and his oath-sworn protector Torgil, were driven from their homeland by the treachery of the Norse king, Harald Eriksson. Having then escaped the horrors of slavery in Estland (Estonia), they now fight among the Rus in the company of Olaf’s uncle, Sigurd.
It will be some of the most battle-torn years in Rus history. The Grand Prince, Sviatoslav, is hungry for land, riches, and power, but his unending campaigns are leaving the corpses of thousands in their wakes. From the siege of Konugard (Kyiv) to the battlefields of ancient Bulgaria, Olaf and Torgil struggle to stay alive in Sigurd’s Swords, the heart-pounding, 300-page sequel to Forged by Iron.
