Resumen del Editor

This is the FoxTales edition of the book previously published by Samhain Publishing.

Other than the cover art and description, the book is the same.

Hundreds of years ago, on a wild sea coast, two bold-hearted men met in combat and love...This is the story of Caius, a Christian monk struggling to reconcile his sensual nature with his newfound faith, and of Fenrir, a ferocious Viking raider abandoned by his comrades and left for dead. When Caius takes pity on the wounded man, his brethren are horrified: what kind of wolf has Cai brought into the fold?

But only when Cai and Fen join forces can the monastery of Fara be saved from the raiders from the east. And Fara holds a secret worth guarding, a legendary amulet with the power to bind even the might of the Vikings. Fen, his heart divided between old loyalties and a new love, must make a decision which could shatter his own heart and Cai's into the bargain.

Will there ever be peace and a future for these brothers of the wild North Sea?

The best so far

I have now read four of Harper Fox's books and this was the best by far, although I enjoyed all of them. Hamish Long's narration was so well done, I would give it a 10. A great piece of historical fiction, well researched, a wonderful love storyline, all that is needed in a great read. Highly recommended.

Such a Pleasure to Listen to

I had a bit of trepidation starting this book based on the plot but I was incredibly surprised at how caught up in the plot and the characters I became. The world that Fox builds is believable [I think historically accurate] , moving and compelling. Death, destruction, great sex and all the things a historical novel like this needs. This genre [as I've experience certainly not extensive] doesn't allow for very much variety in the roles that characters play. Someone is the top. Someone is the bottom. It seems a bit "old school" to me sometimes but that's a minor quibble.

I could not tear myself away from this one

This is by far one of the most well written, engaging stories ever told and beautifully performed. I have discovered a new favourite author 😃

stunning

oh wow, that was such a good book.Fox is my favorite author, and this is one of her best

very well performed.

very well performed. the characters are likable and believable. the intimacy is love making at its best

PLEASE READ - I’m. Absolutely. Stunned.

If you don’t love, love then keep it moving. If you have issues with sex or gays, keep your Karen comments to yourself and kick rocks.

But if you love all the above then……

Beautiful. Stunning. Full of pure adoration and trust. This is absolute my favorite story of harper fox BY FAR!!

I love the subtle topics of what we still face today being woven into every thread of this story. But most of all I absolutely adore that this book is set in the way way back era where “religion” first started. I don’t love it because of the religion, but for its truth of how things have changed and the subtle retelling of what’s “conviene” for the teller. And what we fear most as humans is the unknown.

I am not a believer in religion by any means but I adore this telling of “god” and one’s belief and faith in one’s self.

But MOST of all; I love that this story is centered around two men who come together in love and faith and find a way to lead with grace and humility. They over come the toxic male perspective of what love should look like and I’m stunned so much that I wish I could read for the first time again.

B R A V O - Hamish Long!!! Freaking bravo to you!!

foolish

that's how I felt, I almost cried when I when it looked like brother Caius was about to go to sleep for the last time and Fen would hold him tell the end, it still makes me feel emotional! I mean its a gay romance novel the story shouldn't make me feel like that!! needless to say I LOVED this story, and Hamish long was the PERFECT narrator, I seriously hope hes narrated more audible titles......regardless I recommend this book to anybody whos a hopeless romantic.

A powerful story, a wonderful audio edition.

This story is powerful, in history, in folklore, in theology, in human condition, in love. I'm so glad Brothers of the Wild North Sea was released in audio version. I had not read it in a long while and it was like being new again for me. Harper Fox is the cream of the crop in this genre. I hope she writes many treasures for us to enjoy for many years to come!

EPIC STORY/BOOK/AUDIOBOOK - A CLASSIC, REALLY!

This unexpectedly moved me with its heart-stirring, complex characters and lands. The writer has a genius for language and history. I was transfixed by the skill, power and beauty of the writer's imagination. I can't praise this book/audiobook enough.

Beautiful story fantastic narration

Loved this book. At times it feels a bit slow, but that suits the setting so well - that changing of the seasons, the slow march of a Monk's days. The couple are so sweet together, and I loved the love- making scenes. just enough info to be interesting and swoon worthy, but not overly graphic and not so many that you want to start skipping them.

The story is fantastic, really loved every bit of it. I'm surprised this was a free read as part of Audible membership, so worth the time listening to it .

one I will definitely come back to and listen again.

Only part I didnt like was some characters who had a bad turn of events. Prepare to cry and grieve at parts of this novel!

Narrator is amazing, a new addition to my "must listen" list
