Description

In ancient Finland, in a time when Vikings roamed the seas, young Vierra begins her passage to adulthood. But the medieval north of myth is a dangerous place, and powers both natural and supernatural are ready to take away everything she holds dear. Vierra sets to overcome the odds with her iron will and sharp wit, but fate has more in store for the young woman. As Vierra ventures ever further from her homeland, she discovers that her destiny is far greater than she could have ever imagined. But can she break her path painted in stone? The Fargoer is a historical fantasy adventure that draws its power from the harsh, yet beautiful nature and folklore of Finland. This is the large print edition of the book. Praise from readers: ★★★★★ - "Unusual, absorbing fantasy... A great read." ★★★★★ - "A beautiful tale full of Nordic mythology." ★★★★★ - "A clever mix of history, legend, and the metaphysical realm of spirituality, Fargoer is a remarkable adventure surrounding the life of Vierra, a strong woman broken, only to rebound ever stronger through her experience and compassionate heart." ★★★★★ - "I loved this book. It had action, intrigue, history, and a powerful female lead character." ★★★★★ - "I very much enjoyed the story line even though I am not a student of this type of folklore. Looking forward to the next book." ★★★★★ - "Said to draw heavily from native mythology, Fargoer is a work of fiction unlike most I''ve read. The beautiful descriptions of native, untouched Finland and the ways of life for these people bring the reader a deeper understanding of the Kainu people. ★★★★★ - "I truly enjoyed this myth-like tale. It put me in mind of old Norse (Viking) tales, but talks of the bravery and cunning of the women" ★★★★★ - "Without Fargoer I would not have read the The Kalevala (Oxford World''s Classics), and so would not have discovered unexpected points of contact with other literature that I love." ★★★★★ - "This is a novel full of emotions which draws you in. At first, I thought ''Clan of the Cave Bear'' in its style, but soon the story takes on a quality of its own." ★★★★★ - "Set in the forests of Northern Europe, this tale is delivered in an epic style, merging the mythologies of Scandinavia with fantasy." ★★★★★ - "This is a story that does not romanticize the past, but lays it out there. A whole people fight to survive and Vierra is a symbol of that spirit. She is the Wild Woman archetype, strong in and of herself. She''s far from perfect and this is what makes her believable." ★★★★★ - "She was an amazing character of strength and weakness, of love and hate, of willingness to kill and a sympathetic attitude. I look forward to another engaging and engrossing saga with the Fargoer." ★★★★★ - "A strange, unique world with interesting characters." ★★★★★ - "This was my kind of story. It blended early history about a faraway place and time with an intriguing main character."
