What if the Vikings never vanished?
In the modern age of the powerful Celtic Union, where Norse kings once conquered England and ancient Pagan traditions shape global civilization, the planet stands on the edge of a second Ragnarök. Winters grow impossibly cold. Storms devour coastlines. Political fanaticism spreads like wildfire across nations divided between the old gods and rising Christian extremism. Beneath it all lies a mystery older than empires.
Loke Laufeyson, master of Odin's forbidden path and one of the Union's most feared seiðr-men, has spent his life seeking wisdom. But when his gifted initiate Viktor betrays him by murdering his own father and joining the apocalyptic Green Brigade, Loke is drawn into a conspiracy that threatens to shatter the world itself.
Guided by cryptic prophecies, haunted visions, and ancient rites of desecration, Loke journeys from the stone circles of Callanish to the volcanic chasms of Iceland, where fanatics seek to trigger the end of days. Yet even after disaster is narrowly averted, darker mysteries remain.
Epic, visionary, and hauntingly original, The Vikings Never Died blends mythic fantasy, alternate history, political intrigue, and spiritual mystery into a sweeping saga of gods, destiny, and the fate of civilization.
