highly recommended

C'mon Publisher, let's get busy and reprint it (hardcover) again. I'll even send you the money in advance.

Terrific action story. Can be reread over and over.

I first stumbled onto the book at the public library, and have re-read it several times. Unfortunately I have moved away from the library, and have not been able to find it again. Orm, Toke, Ylva, King Harald, Bishop Poppo, all the characters are just fantastic, and like old friends. It also is a good historical record of the Viking conquests and travels. Orm was justly called "The Far Traveled". I am searching diligently for a copy, so I can read it whenever I want!

Simly the best

I have read the book in its orginale language, Swedish, comes kina natural if you are Swedish :) The Swedish title is - as noted before - Röde Orm, witch means Red Snake, nothing else. People before have been giving a pretty good deskription of it, so what I want to say is just two things: Everyone I lended or given the book to, have just loved it, no matter they age, eduqation, nationallity etc. Even though I almost had to force some people to start read it. Not one single person have thought less of it. If you ever get to Stockholm you can get a English copy (Paperback)at the bookstore in the central-train station (think they also have a Finnish copy of it)
