About this listen

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?

This story had me captured from the start. A compelling tale with well structured plot and characters with depth. The narrator was really impressive and I'll be looking for more of his works in the future.

beautiful and compelling tale

I've never read/listened to a book with such a perfect balance of history, drama and romance (and a healthy dose of sex). It takes its characters and the LGBT love story seriously, with a realistic lack of homophobic attitudes from other characters in the setting. Beautifully written and also narrated.

Magical

This is a beautiful tale of love. Set in trying times amidst death and destruction it still manages to lift the spirits. I cried and I laughed but above all it made me feel for the characters. It’s narrated perfectly bringing a sense of the north east of England at the time.

What a beautiful story.

I really enjoyed the book. The story was quite interesting. The narrator was very good. I was impressed with how well he performed the various voices for each character. When he performed a female character, I found myself checking to see if there was more than one narrator. :)

Great story

This book was absolutely nothing like I thought it would be me, all though the deaths were necessary I did wish for a different outcome for Theo, regardless this was truly something.

Also the narrator! He was so amazing, first book I’ve heard with his narration and he did such a good job speaking differently and having different tones for different people, I was super impressed!

I was very confused through all of it but I’m happy cai and fen got their hea!

What an interesting story..

Wow, I loved this book! It creates the feeling of being in pre- to early-Christian Britain with lots of good historical details, but also doesn't skimp on the very hot sex scenes (a plus in my view). Some religious folk might find it a little offensive, what with all the tearing-off-of-cassocks for that delicious intercultural gay sex, and all--but as a queer atheist, I found it positively therapeutic.

It was especially interesting to imagine the beliefs and inner lives of people living right on the cusp of Christianity, with the old gods and traditions still alive. And at the same time, the clashes between Rome and Iona complicated things even further. That the author fleshed out these complex times so thoroughly in an erotic novel was such a treat.

I'd read/listen to a thousand more books like this, full of rich history, a tender but passionate love story, lots of hot sex, and just a pinch of magic.

A few bits of the narration grated on me. The various voices were mostly really good, but occasionally the male voices were hard to differentiate. Kudos to the narrator for going all-in on the sex scenes though. Sometimes you can tell that a narrator is embarrassed or uncomfortable reading about sex, but I didn’t get any of that with this one.

All in all, if you like a sexy historical romance, I’d highly recommend this one!

Great, incredibly sexy, historical romance!

The quality of the writing exceeds the content and I found the ending a bit rushed and wishy washy given the gravitas and relatively slow pace of the rest of the book.

A mixed bag

I adore Harper Fox's lyrical, magical, fairy talish historicals that surpass the boundaries of mere enjoyable romances. This book brings you to the dark times of early Christian England and takes you on a devastatingly beautiful ride of death defying love, loyalty, wisdom, folklore and magic. Combined with heart-warming humour and everpresent kindness, delivered by one of the best narrators there is (Joe Jameson under the pseudonym of Hamish Long), this book is so much more than just a highly enjoyable listen. Bought Kindle book straight away.

An absolute joy

I picked this up yesterday and I put it down again when it was finished. Re-read the last two chapters again today. This book transported me and gave me a new hope for roots, heritage and homeland. LONG LIVE THE PEOPLE

Epic Love

A delightful book full of historical accuracy, and fabled tale. Beautifully narrated. I just wish there were more than on book.
