The Red
Haunted by the demons of his youth, when his father's blame smothered him for not preventing the murder of his mother and sister, Eirik discovers that trouble is an all-too-loyal companion. Tempestuous and explosive, still he finds friendship and love in the craggy uplands and barren lava fields of medieval Iceland.
At first she pitied him, then laughed at him, then married him. Without Thjodhild, Eirik's world may have crumbled. But with her love and support and the loyalty of his friends, Eirik discovered a new world.
This is the story of the men and women who sought out that mysterious new land. This is the story of the man who led them, named because of the color of his hair and the fierceness of his temper. This is the story of Eirik Thorvaldson, known to history as "Eirik the Red."
