Brynhild is a Valkyrie: shieldmaiden of the All-Father, chooser of the slain. But now she too has fallen, flightless in her exile. Gudrun is a princess of Burgundy, a daughter of the Rhine, a prize for an invading king - a king whose brother Attila has other plans, and a dragon to call upon. And in the songs to be sung, there is another hero: Sigurd, a warrior with a sword sharper than the new moon. As the legends tell, these names are destined to be rivals, fated as enemies. But here on Midgard, legends can be lies... For not all heroes are heroic, nor all monsters monstrous. And a shieldmaiden may yet find that love is the greatest weapon of all.

I really loved this easy read which takes the legend of Brynhild and places it in the context of the fall of the Roman Empire as small states fight for power. There is a good dose of magic built in but no so much that it becomes completely fantastical. It's just a really enjoyable light read. ( )
