War King

Hakon Haraldsson took their father's throne. Now the sons of Erik Bloodaxe have come to get it back.It is 954 A.D. and a tempest is brewing in the North.Twenty summers before, Hakon Haraldsson wrested Norway's throne from his murderous brother, Erik Bloodaxe, but he failed to rid himself of Erik's family. Now the sons of Erik have come to reclaim Erik's realm and avenge the wrong done to their father and their kin.They do not come alone. With them marches an army of sword-Danes sent by the Danish King, Harald Bluetooth, whose desire to expand his realm is as powerful as the lust for vengeance that pulses in the veins of Erik's brood.Like storm-driven waves, the opposing forces collide in War King, the action-packed sequel to God's Hammer and Raven's Feast. You might say that Eric Schumacher lives with one foot in the future and one in the past. By day, he runs his own award-winning PR agency, Neology, and shares stories with the press about the kind of future he believes his clients will shape with their technology products. By night (or frankly, whenever he can find the time), Eric wanders into his passion and unearths stories about people living in turbulent times. He's particularly fascinated with Western Europe during the early medieval age, as well as WWI and WWII.Strangely, Eric never considered writing as a career until he was in his second year of international business school and living in Germany. Poor timing to be sure, but better late than never. It was there that Eric began researching and writing God's Hammer, his first novel.Eric now resides in Santa Barbara with his wife, his two children, and his dog, and is working on his next book. A series by Eric Schumacher.
