Horrible Histories author Terry Deary presents a rip-roaringly funny collection of Viking tales based on thrilling true stories - four books in one! Perfect for history fans (and those who don't know they're history fans yet) aged 7+.
The Eye of the Viking God: Norway, 793 CE. Fleece was snatched by Viking warriors when she was a young girl. Now she must work for a bullying farmer and his family, looking after their sheep. She longs to return to the country where she was born, but how will she ever make that journey back across the sea?
The Battle for the Viking Gold: Whitby, Northern England, 867 CE. Edwin and Luke are young boys training to be monks. It's a quiet life until suddenly the Vikings invade. The boys are terrified of the fearsome Danes, whose gods are even more terrifying warriors than they are. What will happen if the boys are caught?
The Sword of the Viking King: Wessex, England, 878 CE. Fortune is not on the side of the English and the Vikings will soon control all the land. Even young Ethelbert believes he could do a better job than King Alfred. Little does he know that soon he will be called on to prove it.
The Hand of the Viking Warrior: North America, 1009 CE. The conquering Vikings are delighted to reach North America. The land is green and fertile - it's the perfect place to establish a new home. But first they must learn to get on with the native people.
Terry Deary's Terrible True Tales: Vikings explores the world of the Vikings through the eyes of children who could have lived at the time. Packed with fun illustrations by Helen Flook, these stories feature real people and take place in some of the most recognisable Viking settings. This new edition features notes for the reader to help extend learning and exploration of the historical period.
