The Axe of the Northmen

By John P Greenan

Evacuated from Kingston upon Hull to Riccall, York during World War II, twelve-year-old Eric flees cruel guardians and finds a destiny he never wanted.

With a simple twist of fate, Eric is thrown back in time to 1066, where he is bound to an ancient axe and to the legendary Viking King, Harald Hardrada.

Thrown into a world of warriors, Kings, and battles, Eric must find the strength to defy the past and find his way home by altering some of history's pivotal moments, or be lost to it forever.

A thrilling time-travel adventure of courage, destiny, and the enduring spirit of the North.
