Book Overview
The Saga of ?d?s Rau?feldr is a saga deeply rooted in the mythology, legends, and folklore of the Norse and the S?mi at the advent of the Viking era. It is the story of women, mortal, enchanted and cursed, who survive and free those who have been doomed. This tale though dark at times concerns the enduring nature of those who survive, and whose voice can still be heard today.
Those who enjoy historical fiction, mythology, Norse & Icelandic sagas, the Viking Age, and elements of fantasy and the supernatural, would enjoy this book. As would those who have an interest in ancient S?mi mythology, and how they might have interacted with neighbouring groups.
This saga is told from the perspective of female characters within a patriarchal society, and how they maximized their agency. This is becoming an increasingly important and current topic for many. However, it also looks at relationships between people who have been stripped of their identity, men and women alike.
