About this listen

If you like Bernard Cornwell, Conn Iggulden, Simon Scarrow, and David Gemmell, you will love this Viking adventure saga packed with battles, vengeance, blood, and gore.

AD 874, Norway.

A brutal place, home of warriors where Odin holds sway. King Harald Fairhair fights to become king of the north.

Hundr, a Northman with a dog's name...a crew of battle hardened warriors...and a legendary war where the will of the gods will determine who is victorious.

After incurring the wrath of Ketil Flatnose, Jarl of the Orkney isles, Hundr and his crew become drawn into King Harald's fight for supremacy over all Norway. Hundr must retrieve the Yngling sword, a blade forged for the gods themselves, and find favor with an old friend, Bjorn Ironside, as he fights a vicious and deadly enemy, Black Gorm the Berserker.

Hundr must navigate the war, survive brutal attacks, and make Harald the King of War in this fast-paced adventure with striking characters and bloodthirsty action.

King of War continues the unmissable Viking historical fiction saga series that began with Peter Gibbons' debut novel Viking Blood and Blade.

Love this series of books. I’m obsessed with the Vikings, this is right up my street.

Word of warning - I made the mistake of not listening to a sample of the NEXT book “Valkrie Rising”, don’t make the same mistake as me, the narrator changes and quite frankly, is terrible.

Great book, great narration. With a word of warning….

I read the first two books of this saga and then audiable took over for the rest. You get invested in the characters and you learn a little history along the way. The performance is second to none and in a genre seems to be inundated with jostling story tellers this saga is worth a listen. Constant action, fictional and real life characters, battles for earldoms and kingdoms will keep you eagerly listening.

Just a damn good listen!
