FOUR EPIC VIKING ADVENTURES. ONE UNFORGETTABLE SAGA. Don't just read Viking history — live it!

Love. Loyalty. Vengeance. Destiny. Two cursed orphans meet on a beach in Orkne0079.

One will become a warrior.
The other will become a woman who knows how to survive in a man's world.

Together, Skarfr and Hlif will cross storm-tossed seas, face bloodthirsty enemies, challenge the power of rulers and discover that the gods may have plans of their own.

The Midwinter Dragon Quartet brings together all four novels in Jean Gill's gripping historical saga, taking you from Viking Orkney to the Holy Land, Sicily and Constantinople, deep into a world where old gods, ancient grudges and human ambition collide.

If you love Viking adventure, Norse mythology, forbidden love, political intrigue and unforgettable characters, this is a series to lose yourself in.

THE RING BREAKER: Orkney, 1139.

In the twilight of the old gods, two cursed orphans meet – and their lives are changed forever. Skarfr is determined to become a warrior and win back the honour stolen from him. Hlif has learned that survival demands a different kind of strength.

When the sins of their fathers threaten their futures, they must decide how much they are willing to sacrifice for each other. Their story begins with a promise. And a curse.

AMONG SEA WOLVES: The Whale Road, 1150.

Fifteen ships leave Orkney on a pilgrimage to the Holy Land. Among the warriors, pilgrims and sea wolves are Skarfr and Hlif, bound by a love that their ruler has forbidden. As the fleet sails farther from home, danger follows.

Murder. Betrayal. Political intrigue. Skarfr has sworn an oath to his Jarl but what happens when loyalty to a lord demands betrayal of the woman he loves?

On the Viking whale road, every oath has a price.

HUNTING THE SUN: Sicily, 1151.

Exiled far from Orkney, Skarfr and Hlif are trying to build a new life but exile has not made them safe.

In the glittering court of King Roger II, enemies lurk behind smiles, political alliances shift like sand and someone wants them dead. While Skarfr fights to reclaim his honour, Hlif's mysterious gifts draw her ever deeper into realms of the gods.

Battling enemies on land, at sea and in the mystic otherworld, they follow the dangerous paths laid down by fate, knowing that Loki always laughs last.

WITH RAVEN WINE: Orkney, 1153.

Skarfr has survived exile, war and betrayal. Now he is restored to honour. But peace is not what awaits him.

From the River Jordan to Constantinople and back to the troubled islands of Orkney, Skarfr and Hlif are caught up in a deadly struggle for power. Old enemies return. New loyalties are tested. And Hlif's ability to walk in the dream world reveals visions that could change everything.

As Orkney erupts into violence, the raven wine of the sagas flows once again.

The final battle is coming.
