The Huntsman of Alba
Abducted as a child from his tribe in the New World, Hawk has spent the last fifteen years traveling medieval Europe as a huntsman for hire. All the while, he hopes to find and enact revenge upon the Norsemen raiders who murdered his family. This quest brings him to twelfth century Scotland’s Kingdom of Alba where he is propositioned by the king. In exchange for slaying a mysterious beast, the king will share information about Hawk’s kidnappers.
Hawk’s epic journey begins. He joins forces with a mysterious noblewoman, a chivalrous knight, and a witty and fearless warrior named Mòrag—all of whom seek the evil Norsemen. But as the kingdom falls apart at the hands of warring clans and his companions’ secret pasts threaten their quest and their lives, Hawk becomes ever more determined to not let his hunt for revenge fail.
But will his resolve aid him in his mission, or will vengeance blind him from what is truly important?
Written by renowned fantasy author Dr. Doug Chapman, The Huntsman of Alba is the first installation of the Huntsman of Alba series.

I absolutely loved this book! Morag was my favourite character of them all and it is so refreshing to have a strong female lead in a historical fiction! Every chapter written by this author always leaves me wanting more. I found it was impossible to put this book down and I finished it in no time. I am so excited to see that the sequel comes out this year - I can’t wait to see what these characters get up to next!
This book is well paced and very well written. A completely immersive experience that I would recommend to anyone.
