This review is from: Beast Warrior: Viking Werewolf (Paperback)
Title: Beast Warrior: Viking Werewolf
Author: Eva Gordon
Long ago in Europe, a very special girl was born. At her birth, a seer prophesied that through her, all the Lycan packs would unite, and a great evil would be defeated. She was also destined to be the mate of the greatest Lycan alpha, and theirs would be a love for all times.
Emelisse was a very special girl. Born prematurely, she was the treasured daughter of a powerful Lycan alpha and his beloved wolf maiden. Because of her early birth, she had always been protected, since her heart was weak. As she grew, Emelisse trained with the skilled Lycan healers, learning everything they could teach her. When her father arranged her marriage to an alpha she despised, Emelisse decided that she would run away, and live with the other humans. However, her plans went awry, and after a series of unfortunate events, she found herself captured by the fierce Viking Bearskins, who were known for their terrible cruelty. What would happen to Emelisse? Will she die at the hands of the enemy of her people, or does the goddess Feronia have greater things in store for her?
Sigurd had lived a very hard life. As one of the few Northern Wolfskins, he was the last of his pack. When his parents were killed by bearskins, he and his sister escaped. However, his sister was infected with a horrible disease that caused her to go insane, and murder dozens of people. Devastated by yet another loss, and vowing vengeance on the bears who had killed his parents, Sigurd left the Northland and joined a Viking crew, trying to track down the raiders who killed his family. When he finally found them, he discovered Emelisse, the woman destined to be his. Will Sigurd be able to move past his need for vengeance? Will Emelisse be able to help him save himself?
A riveting back story, an entertaining cast of secondary characters, and a meticulous attention to facts all help to make BEAST WARRIOR: VIKING WEREWOLF another entertaining story by Ms. Gordon. The story is very well written, the romance between Emelisse and Sigurd was sweetly romantic at times, and scorching in intensity at other times. The villains of the story are nasty, and fit very well with the historical context. The mental pictures conjured by the word "Viking" match the description of the bearskins very well. I also enjoyed the magical elements, especially the mythology. BEAST WARRIOR was an excellent second book for Ms Gordon, and I look forward to reading more of her wolf maiden stories. Well done!
