very good
The book was ok but skips over the Vikings were raiding England and Europe. The background information was interesting but moved into the Christian period with little discussion of trade and society.

Great Author
I always wanted to learn more about the Vikings. I found the information interesting and a good diversion during my daily commute. I think I understand their anger and retaliation a little better having read about forced conversions.

Don't waste your time
No need in reading this. Most of what's written is speculation and myth, not history. The performance is terrible.

Interesting but repetitive
Definitely learned some new info but a lot of this book is very repetitive. There are several parts of the story that are repeated numerous times for no apparent reason. The person reading in the first half also sounds very robotic. Given these reasons, it was tough to stay interested but I eventually made it through to the end.

Repeating story
I don’t know why, but the writing just keeps repeating itself. You’ll hear an entire story, then not long after you’ll hear the same story but with different words.

Amazing
I enjoyed this although, it's more of a paper than a book. Not a deep history but, it touches historical high points and gives me some things to research on my own.

Concise Book
Indeed, concise. And that's exactly what I was looking for. I like history and mythology, and I am always looking for lectures or podcasts for their brevity. I've never thought that I would find it in a book. Chapeau!!!

Awesome Information
Full of history that satisfies all what I was looking for. This book was recommended to me and said if I really wanted to know the history of the Vikings Gwyn Jones was what I was looking for. Great book.
