This is a parody of the classic Viking novel about the incredible adventures of Red Orm - his capture, slavery under the Caliph of Cordoba, work as a galley rower, adoption of Christianity, liberation, marriage to the daughter of King Harald and, in the end, the search for treasure at the Dnieper rapids. “The Most fascinating reading about the Normans”, “A wonderful novel, where, with the help of the writer’s imagination, the decayed skeleton of a Viking turns into a living, brave warrior...” These are the words in which picky critics spoke about this “treasure” of world literature, for “Red Orm” has long been rightfully is considered a classic. The accuracy of the historical material, combined with the caustic irony of the author, who never misses an opportunity to mock the Vikings, their morals and customs, makes the novels incredibly fascinating, and it is impossible to tear yourself away from them - it’s not for nothing that “Red Orme” has not been published for five decades list of the most read books all over the world. We hope that our readers will also like the saga of the brave and witty Viking. Happy sailing on the Viking longships![1]
