"Cait, Scotland. The villagers have gathered, panic stricken, at the approach of a fleet of dragons that is churning the sea. The year is 847 CE. The Viking invasion has reached their shores. Eighteen years later, the Vikings and villagers are living as one, and Angus - the son of a Viking warrior and a Scots woman - is sixteen years old. Once again, dragon ships are approaching Cait's shores. But this time, the callers are seeking allies to join the quest for vengeance in the British kingdoms. Eager to prove himself as a man and a great warrior's son, Angus joins the crusade." -- Colophon.
