Publisher's Summary

From the best-selling co-author of Saga Land, an epic and compelling novel that reimagines the fate of one of Iceland's famous women of history.

After committing an audacious act of revenge for her brother's murder, Disa flees with her son, Sindri, through the fjords of Iceland. She has already endured the death of her loved ones. Now she must run to save her son and her honour. In a society where betrayals and revenge killings are rife, all Disa has is her pride and her courage. Will it be enough for her and her son to escape retribution?

Dramatic and urgent in its telling, The Sorrow Stone celebrates one woman's quest, against the dramatic backdrop of the Icelandic countryside. It takes a side-lined figure from the Viking tales and finally puts her where she belongs - at the centre of the story.

Captivating Tale

It just goes to show how timeless the Nordic sagas are. The strength of the young woman who was not afraid to question tradition and custom both new and old.
