Oddr Snorrason, a Benedictine monk in northern Iceland in the late twelfth century, composed a landmark Latin biography of the legendary Norwegian king Olaf Tryggvason (died 1000 C.E.). This biography was soon translated into Icelandic, and the translation (though not the Latin original) is preserved in two somewhat differing versions and a small fragment of a third. The Saga of Olaf Tryggvason is the first English translation of this text, augmented by an introduction and notes to guide the reader. There is a strong possibility that Oddr's biography was the first full-length saga of the Icelandic Middle Ages. It ushered in a century of saga writing that assured Iceland a unique place in medieval literature and in the history of prose writing. Aside from being a harbinger of the saga tradition, and indeed of the modern novel, The Saga of Olaf Tryggvason has its own literary merits, including an epic description of the great Battle of Svoldr, in which King Olaf succumbed. In significant ways the narrative of this battle anticipates the mature style of the classical sagas in the thirteenth century.

Olav Tryggvason var oldebarnet til Harald Hårfagre, vokste opp i Russland, innførte kristendommen i Norge og grunnla Trondheim før han døde i slaget ved Svolder i år 1000. Slik har historien blitt fortalt i 800 år. Men hva om ingenting av dette stemmer? Historikeren Øystein Morten har reist i Olav Tryggvasons fotspor og funnet en helt annen historie om Olav og hans tid. Dette er fortellingen om en brutal maktkamp mellom danske kongearvinger, sammenstøt ved Londons murer, bestialske seksuelle ritualer og menneskeofringer. Forfatteren gir oss et fengslende innblikk i samlingen av Norge med utgangspunkt i Troms, innføringen av kristendommen i fire land og oppdagelsen av et nytt kontinent. Velkommen til en av de mest ekstreme reiseskildringene i Nord-Europas historie rundt år 1000!

A thrilling work of popular history that gives a new perspective on the Viking-Anglo conflicts and brings the bloody period to life In the eleventh century, the rulers of the lands surrounding the North Sea are all hungry for power. To get power they need soldiers, to get soldiers they need silver, and to get silver there is no better way than war and plunder. This vicious cycle draws all the lands of the north into a brutal struggle for supremacy and survival that will shatter kingdoms and forge an empire. The Wolf Age takes the reader on a thrilling journey through the bloody shared history of England and Scandinavia, and across early medieval Europe: from the wild Norwegian fjords to the wealthy cities of Muslim Andalusia. Warfare, plotting, backstabbing and bribery abound as prize-winning historian Tore Skeie weaves together sagas and skaldic poetry with bold dramatization to bring the world of the Vikings and Anglo-Saxons to vivid life. 'Skeie has a unique ability to conjure images of the richest detail, everything from chaotic battles to the period's exhausting day-to-day life' A-MAGASINET Tore Skeie is one of Norway's most acclaimed historians, having written several prize-winning and bestselling works of medieval history. Tore is known for his eye for historical and human drama, while his books have been praised both for their thrilling style and the way they challenge traditional nation-oriented historical narratives. The Wolf Age was a bestseller in Norway, won the prestigious Sverre Steen award and is the first of Tore's books to be translated into English.

Kven var eigentleg denne Geirmund Heljarskinn, kongesonen frå Avaldsnes i Rogaland som vart den mektigaste landnåmsmannen på Island på slutten av 800-talet? Dette var eitt av mange spørsmål Bergsveinn Birgisson for nokre år sidan stilte seg i boka Den svarte vikingen. For Geirmund var definitivt ein mann ei soge verdig, men det finst inga soge! Denne svært påfallande mangelen nærmar seg her ei oppklaring. For no er soga om Geirmund Heljarskinn endeleg funnen! Birgisson fortel her i eit forord om då han i 2014 vart kontakta av ein islandsk venn og kollega som hadde gjort eit sensasjonelt funn blant nokre avlagde dokument i det islandske nasjonalbiblioteket. Ein kopi av eit skinninnbunde handskrift frå eit no forsvunne kloster på Vest-Island, som gjev seg ut for å vere nettopp denne manglande soga – og med det ei av dei tidlegaste innan soge-sjangeren og om mannen som vert sagd å vere den mektigaste av alle i Islands eldste historie. Viss det heile då ikkje er eit plagiat og eit falsum...

More than marauders and bloodthirsty conquerors, the Vikings were builders of a civilization which influence may still be seen in the modern world. The Viking Age is arguably one of the most fascinating epochs in history, and in this book, a new narrative is presented based on Viking history as it is told in the Norse Sagas. Viking Legacy represents a new generation of books exploring the Viking Age. By integrating the Saga literature with other sources, a more complete picture emerges of this increasingly popular era, and a civilization that would change the course of history. Torgrim Titlestad, professor, dr.philos. is one of Norway’s foremost experts and most prolific authors on the Viking Age and Saga history. He is the recipient of the Saga Award (2016) and was appointed Knight of the Order of the Falcon (2017) by Iceland’s President, Guðni Th. Jóhannesson, for his work with the Norse sagas, especially Tormod Torfæus’ Magnum Opus Historia Rerum Norvegicarum and the Icelandic saga treasure Flateyjarbók.
