Publisher Comments:

It's the eve of the Festival of Greatness and Dane has a big problem. He's yet to choose his nickname. Dane the Dangerous? Dane the Despicable? He can't decide. But when Dane sees his proud father shamed by the evil tyrant Thidrek the Terrifying, Dane's indignation earns him a moniker that sticks—Dane the Defiant! And when Thidrek kidnaps Dane's beloved Astrid in hopes of trading her for the ultimate power of the gods, Dane defiantly goes after him like a bat out of Valhalla. Braving treacherous seas, deadly creatures, and a lovestarved Frost Giant, Dane and his rowdy band of Norseboys embark on an epic quest to end Thidrek's reign of terror and take their place among the greatest Viking heroes of all time.

Synopsis:

From the dynamic writing duo of Jennewein and Parker comes a rollicking adventure series that playfully reimagines some familiar figures of Norse mythology.

My 10-year-old son and I read this together and there was plenty of humor and adventure in it for both of us. He's a good reader for his age and the book's vocabulary was just challenging enough for him. We're looking forward to the next Rune Warriors book from these authors, or maybe even a movie.
