They came to take no prisoners. Their eerie horns made a distinctive sound, and their fearsome longboats struck from out of nowhere.

The Vikings, their history and mythology fascinates many because it speaks to something within us: The fight to succeed and to grow stronger.

Make no mistake, these were not nice people, but much of their legacy was not just about pillaging and destruction. In this audiobook, History Brought Alive reveals new insights into the Vikings.
