Really recommend this one: https://www.amazon.com/Ivory-Vikings-Mystery-Famous-Chessmen/dp/1250108594
Great look into the Viking world, how expansive it was, and what the society was capable of, all through the lens of a few sets of ivory chess pieces.
Based on ancient Viking legends, it tells of ill-fated deeds of tragedy and strife in the land of men. Combines mythical tales and gritty human drama with extraordinary events, strange creatures, and fierce battles.
It starts with a love triangle of king Bjarki, a man of insatiable desires, who falls in love with Ingrid, a swain-maiden, and the despised queen Ylva and that was keep concealed. Because of her unrequited love, Ylva plotted the destruction of both lovers. After being victorious, she frightens the land with her ‘wolf-warriors,’ and she slaughters her foes with her dread werewolf form and using her treachery schemes. But a mighty shield-maiden Bera vows to stop the queen’s endeavor and thus honor the death of her kinsman and brother, king Bjarki.
The Chose Among the Slain is the first novella in a set of two books. If you like Vikings and Norse mythology, swords, and shapeshifting magic, you will enjoy this unforgettable story of never-ending revenge.
