Rune to Ruin - Gregory Amato

. .

Résumé :
A viking crew set on revenge. A conspiracy among the gods. The Spear of the Gods Saga continues with Rune to Ruin. Ansgar the Skald is sailing into the middle of an epic war between two legendary vikings. That's about to be the least of his problems. Delving deep beneath Midgard? Battling trolls, sea monsters, and sorcerers? Just another season for Ansgar and the crew of the Sea Squirrel as they seek revenge for fallen friends. This time, they will need to cross even more dangerous thresholds. The realm of the dead awaits, where secrets are easier to uncover. That deep wisdom has a price, though, and it might cost Ansgar his sanity. It helps to have Haldor Skullsplitter and company watching his back. But it will take all Ansgar's powers of poetry and runes, a guardian spirit, and a shapeshifting sword to survive this adventure. Rune to Ruin is book two in Gregory Amato's Spear of the Gods Saga, where the myths, magic, and monsters of the Viking Age are real....

Biographie:
Gregory Amato is a Judo-teaching, beer-brewing, heavy metal-listening kind of guy who thinks the civilized world could use a dose of adventure.

He wrote all kinds of stuff for years. True and Important Stuff! He wrote for newspapers and magazines when they were still printed on paper. He wrote intelligence for the FBI for over a decade, chasing white supremacists, international hackers, and corporate fraudsters.
All that while, he was also making up stories about vikings and wizards.
Norse fantasy! Gods and monsters! Axes and runes! Magic swords and talking ravens! A bunch of lies, unlike the True and Important Stuff.
In 2021 he left his super secret job at the FBI, set all his stuffy suits and ties on fire,* and decided to dedicate as much time as possible to writing a bunch of lies. Lies told to illustrate the truth, because those are the best adventures to go on. The kind that make you late to dinner.
Gregory lives happily in the Pacific Northwest with his family. They are often late for dinner.
*Not really....
