Book for Keeps
[An] engaging adventure . . . an entertaining and appealing story in its own right
Booktrust
Greatly reminiscent of the estimable Rosemary Sutcliff and Geoffrey Trease. Wickedly illustrated throughout (with a few very powerful double page spreads), it’s a gorgeous modern spin on the historical novel tradition all packaged up with Bradman’s pacey, accessible prose and some substantial myth and magic
Did You Ever Stop to Think and Forget to Start Again?
Whether you are a child or an adult, if you enjoy a thrilling adventure you’ll enjoy this book.

Packed with action, this exciting story is a fascinating insight into the world of Vikings.
The Week Junior
[...] a great length for a class read in years 5 or 6 and beyond. [...] This story would be a great accompaniment to a Vikings history unit, allowing teachers to explore both the brutality of Viking life and elements of Norse Mythology. I prefer this text to '<i>How to Train Your Dragon</i>' as a more realistic portrayal of Viking culture.
Literacy Shed
“[…] couched in excellent research on the period and brings the Viking world to life in a vivid and dramatic way.”
