It was a changed world. No longer did the black monks of the Christian Church
own half of England and extend their deadly domain over their flock. No longer
did the murderous Ragnarssons and their Viking hordes ravage the shires
unopposed. Now, in the year 867 AD, those who wished to be Christian were free
to worship without the heavy yoke of the ever-hungry Church. Those who did not
could follow the Asgarth Way, the Norse religion that paid homage to the gods
of Asgard: Othin, Thor, Frey...and Rig. Rig, the patron - perhaps the father?
- of Shef Sigvarthsson. Whose new weapons and battle strategy had defeated
both the battle-hardened Vikings and the Frankish knights of Pope Nicholas'
failed Crusade.

While enemies plotted, Shef left England by ship, to avoid the wedding of his
ally, Alfred of Wessex, to his childhood love, Godive. Shipwrecked on the
Frisian Coast he begins a journey that will keep him away from England for
months and years, and add more legends to his already myth-shrouded life.

In One King's Way Harry Harrison Continues the story of Shef Sigvarthsson,
god-chosen warrior and mystic. From the Vikings of the North Sea to the
scheming priests of Germany, from the frozen northern lands to the snow-
covered Finnish tundra, he fights his way towards overwhelming kingship. While
his supernatural allies and enemies engage in a shadowy battle for his future.
This is historical fantasy of the highest order, from a giant of the genre.
