The Axe (The Master of Hestviken, Vol 1)
The Axe - The Master of Hestviken, Vol 1
Author: Sigrid Undset
Soaringly romantic and psychologically nuanced, Undest's novel is also a meticulous re-creation of a world split between pagan codes of retribution and the rigors of Christian piety -- a world where law is a fragile new invention and manslaughter is so common that it's punishable by fine.
