Warriors and warlords, action and adventure, growth and understanding:
Truth Seeker is a gripping tale about the pursuit of honour and adventure, and the revelations that these bring.
A young Viking boy flees his homeland and cruel stepfather to join his real father – a legendary warrior living in Dublin. His ambition is to gain honour through battle and brave deeds, using his powerful sword, the Truth Seeker. But he soon learns that not all battle is glorious, not all death honourable, and that sometimes your enemies have as much to teach you as your own people.
A powerful coming-of-age story, set against the turbulent background of Viking raids, feudal battles
and the bloody demands of the god Odin.
