Sidroc the Dane: A Circle of Ceridwen Saga Story

By: Octavia Randolph

Narrated by: Nano Nagle

How the boy became a Viking. How the man became a legend.

A discarded child fated to become a powerful Jarl - here is the story of Sidroc.

Fate guides the path of his father, Hrald, to his meeting with the woman whose son would help change the face of ninth-century Angle-land. An ever-growing rivalry between Sidroc and his cousin Toki defines the boys' early years. Their young uncle, Yrling, knows success as a raider in far-off Angle-land, and trains his nephews in the ways of the warrior. Ahead of them is the perilous crossing of the North Sea, which stands between them and the plunder they seek. Once on the great island of Angle-land, hard fighting awaits, through which Sidroc rises to second in command in the war-band headed by Yrling. Then, at their captured Saxon stronghold, comes the young woman for whom Sidroc will one day change his life....

Dovetailing into Book One, Sidroc the Dane is a new stand-alone entry point into the world of The Circle of Ceridwen of Saga, a book to be savoured at any point on the journey. Enter the Circle here.

Captivating Performance and Thrilling Storyline

This first (prequel technically) book in the “A Circle of Ceridwen Saga Story” is a wonderful backstory to one of the most mysterious and loved characters in the Saga Story. This book is narrated magnificently by Ms. Nagle and the plot and character development is nothing short of immaculate. My only regret is that I discovered this book after reading the original Saga Story. I hope the talented Randolph continues this story with more books to come.

Sidroc the Dane

Following The Saga's, the stories of Ceridwen, is how I shall refer to the enjoyable readings. . . I found this book, Sidroc the Dane to be a bit redundant, repetition within the story telling. Having read each preceding this book, I felt having heard the tales told (previously within the pages of book I, II, III, and IIII, and V).
Having said that, I am still a fan and will read the next: Tindr.
I really like the Authors method of not telling all within one massive jumbled character infused novel. Character development seems to be her method.
