As England Burns: The Rise of Sweyn Forkbeard - Paperback

by Daniel Kennedy (Author)

On November 13th 1002 A.D. the English King thelred the Unready orders the massacre of all free Danes living in England. His actions set in motion the rise of Sweyn Forkbeard a powerful Viking warlord. We follow the journey of Thomas, an orphaned Viking farm boy sold into slavery. He yearns for his freedom and craves revenge. To get it he must escape and join the largest Viking horde ever assembled. But what was once his homeland, is now his prison, his neighbors now his captors. He has sworn an oath of vengeance to Odin and will not rest until English fields run red and all England burns in his wake.

This is the complete reworked ND edited version of "The Rise of Sweyn Forkbeard" complete with a bonus chapter of Book Two: Blood Reign. This is the book that should have been released and I am proud to put my name on it. The first release was a good story, poorly executed by myself and the first (now defunct) publisher. Blood Reign is due out summer 2022. Thanks to all the fans, who commented and didn't let this story die, this one is for you.
