Book One in The Saga of Freydis Eiriksdottir is now live and ready for you to read!

Freydis: The Saga of Freydis Eiriksdottir (Book One) is now live on Amazon! If you preordered your copy ahead of time it means that you are likely already reading it. However, for everyone else, the details are below.

BLURB

The sea can take you or kill you — eventually, I will be forced to do the same.

Freydis Eiriksdottir was possibly one of the most famous Viking women — or at least the one who travelled the longest distance.

After wanting some prestige for herself, Freydis convinces her brother, Leif, to allow her to travel to the famed Vinland with him.

However, her journey is fraught with danger, and not only from those around her but from herself as well.

Book One in the Freydis Eiriksdottir Saga will explore the rise of this daring Viking Age woman as she traverses a man’s world in order to claim her own glory.

Explore not only her fascinating saga in novel form but also discover more about the saga her story was taken from as I uncover more details about the, at times, contradictory sagas of Freydis’ life.

This saga is the latest from Rachel Tsoumbakos, whose aim is to recreate the lives of Viking Age women — one feisty heroine at a time.

Freydis: The Saga of Freydis Eiriksdottir is also FREE to read in Kindle Unlimited.

Check out the new Facebook series, Badass Viking Women!

I have just started up a new Facebook series over on my public page. It is called Badass Viking Women and will delve into some of the most badass women of the Viking Age.

It comes as no surprise that the first Viking lady I cover is Lagertha, a famous shieldmaiden that fought alongside Ragnar Lodbrok.

Lagertha was a noblewoman who was forced into a life in a brothel through no fault of her own. Instead, men fighting over who should be king were responsible.

Not willing for this to be her final story, Lagertha and the women rise up against their captivity, and Ragnar can’t help but fall in love with the feisty woman.

This new Facebook series will cover a variety of Viking Age women — from those that I have already covered in my books, to those that are hardly recognised or not often discovered by those outside of the sagas.

I plan to drop a new character twice a month so make sure that you like my Facebook page and keep an eye out for each new instalment.

So, why don’t you head on over to my Facebook page now in order to find out more.

And, if you want even more, why not sign up for my newsletter? It comes out twice a month and details what’s going on in my writing life as well as always including a variety of historical fiction books and promos that will help to fill your historical fiction void between reading my books 😉
