Valkirias

It is the year 859. A Viking fleet travels to Seville, one of the richest cities of the moment, with the aim of razing it and looting it. However, everything is in failure, and the northern warriors are captured by the governor of the city, who demands an inordinate ransom for their liberation. When the news reaches their village, the women decide not to surrender and, together with some children and slaves, hire a small group of mercenaries who will teach them how to fight. A year later, the rescue expedition will be ready to set sail. It seems like an impossible mission, which, from the beginning, will be fraught with misfortune and adversity. With great narrative agility and an exhaustive knowledge of the time, I. Biggi transports us to the world of the Vikings in a raid that reached our shores. An adventure novel that shows us the most human side of a civilization as dazzling as it is terrifying.
