This is my first historical fiction book I’ve read, and I thoroughly enjoyed this story. A lot of characters, some loveable, some frustrating, but their connections and the story itself captivated me. 

Trigger warning: though they do not show it, they do mention raping, and this is base in the 900s-1000s, women are looked as possessions of fathers and husbands.
