The year is A.D. 922. A refined Arab courtier, representative of the powerful Caliph of Bagdad, encounters a party of Viking warriors who are journeying to the barbaric North.
He is appalled by their Viking customs, the wanton sexuality of their pale, angular women, their disregard for cleanliness , their cold blooded human sacrifices.
But it is not until they reach the depths of the Northland that the courtier learns the horrifying and inescapable truth: He has been enlisted by these savage, inscrutable warriors to help combat a terror that plagues them, a monstrosity that emerges under cover of night to slaughter the Vikings and devour their flesh . . .
I read most of Michael Crichton's books, but not this one. It will be the first after I finish the series I am listening to now. Thank you for uploading!:)
