Rune's Journey The Legend of Thule

By: Carolyn Bennett-Hunter

D etermined to prove the Land of Thule does exist, Rune begins a careful study of scrolls left behind by an ancestor for whom he is named. Accused of heresy after trying to persuade others in Vinland the false gods they worship are nothing more than remarkable humans remembered by history, Rune is forced to flee for his life from the only home he has ever known. After depleting the land of its natural resources, and having aroused the anger of local natives, it has also become unsafe for the other residents of Vinland to remain. Will there be enough room in the aging fleet of long ships to accommodate the entire colony? Are they successful in their attempt to return to their homeland across the open sea? Does any trace of the Vinland settlement remain for future generations to find? What dangers await Rune and his sparse group of followers as they set out by dogsled and then on foot in search of Thule? Will the Skraeling natives who have aligned themselves with Rune share his fate? Join them as they travel into the Thule mountain range. Forgotten civilizations thriving there present many challenges. Romance will pull at your heartstrings. Narrowly escaping one disaster after another, Rune and his surviving comrades finally find themselves on a plateau of prehistoric apex predators. Can they overcome them in time to reach the Land of Thule before it is forever too late to ensure their survival? Any similarity to events, places, historical figures, organizations or persons either living or dead within the pages of this historical fiction novel is entirely coincidental.
