Rating: ![1 stars](http://www.reviewfocus.com/images/stars-1-0.gif) Summary: Not worth finishing... Review: ...for many reasons. Please refer to Caesar's review for details. For me, I have a strong aversion to books in which characters shudder and shiver everytime they see or think of something frightening or repulsive. It's cartoonish.
Rating: ![2 stars](http://www.reviewfocus.com/images/stars-2-0.gif) Summary: So-So Review: I love this author, but this book was a big disappointment. Thing's just dragged on and on, I had to read some things twice because it didn't make sense the first time. I didn't realize who the soul thief was until the last minute. I can't explain it, there wasn't enough story about some things-and too much about others. The only thing that would make it up to me would be a sequel to this book written in the way of the Greenlander's or something.
Rating: ![4 stars](http://www.reviewfocus.com/images/stars-4-0.gif) Summary: A sweeping Viking Tale Review: This book from start to finish had me entranced. I believe this has to do primarily with Cecelia Holland being a truly gifted story teller. No matter where she took the story, I wanted to follow. Corban's growth from a young boy to manhood, is swift as he is faced with the total destruction of his family. His connection with his sister leads him on his journey to save her, where he meets all sorts of people who will become important in his life. The one part I did not enjoy in this book, was the telepathic connection with his sister. This book is rich in historical detail and I feel this detracted from the richness of the story.
