Ancient powers. Strong love. Desperate times.

1883. Hanne would give anything to be free of the ancestral Viking curse that overcomes her when she or anyone she loves is in danger. She becomes a Berserker―an elegant, graceful and shameless killer.

When she kills three men attacking their father, Hanne and her siblings must flee Norway and head to the American frontier, on a desperate search for their uncle, the one man who can help Hanne learn to control her powers.

Aided by a young cowboy who agrees to be their guide, Hanne and her siblings use their ancient powers to survive the perilous trail, where blizzards, wild animals, and vicious bounty hunters await.

A gripping and emotional story filled with adventure, destruction, longing and redemption.

Berserker was a really interesting novel about teenagers with Viking like powers in old west America.

The concept was very intriguing with the combination of cowboys and Norse mythology. I enjoyed the fast paced plot and felt that it was written well especially the details of life in the wild west.

I also really liked the characters; from the tight knit family of Hanne, Stieg, Knut and Sissel to Owen and his dog.

Really looking forward to reading the follow up!
