Book Description
It started as simple research. It became a metafictional mystery that would leave him questioning his sanity. P. August Dallou is determined to make his mark. So when the literary scholar discovers papers citing a shadowy 1300-year-old Viking still living and writing today, he'll stop at nothing to interview the man and publish his genius. But the cunning Nordic immortal keeps cleverly switching aliases and locations, continually evading Dallou's reach and leaving the frustrated researcher wondering if it's all one big hallucination. Tracing a twisting history of letters that leads to the likes of Philip Marlowe, Franz Kafka, and Miguel de Cervantes, the dogged professor and his well-read canine close in on the elusive Norseman. But when the Quixotic quest for the furtive fugitive takes a metaphysical turn, Dallou's shock is palpable as the fiction on the page bleeds into a befuddling confusion of real-life surprises. Will the absurdly challenged intellectual's hunt for the truth take him all the way to an utterly unreal "The End"? The Secret Viking: A Detective Story is the mind-blowing first book in The Secret Viking literary satirical fiction series. If you like deep irony, poetic comedy, and fractal-like concepts, then you'll love Martin Myers's brain-bending narrative. Buy The Secret Viking to provoke preposterous perceptions today!

The Vikings Secret Yoga

Publisher: Independently Published
ISBN:
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 300
Book Description
Are you a fan of the Truth? If you enjoyed the writings of Eckhart Tolle, the mythology of Joseph Campbell, Deepak Chopra's eastern teachings, or Graham Hancock's books on prehistoric civilizations, you are sure to love The Vikings Secret Yoga; The Supreme Adventure. This is the first time in history that this Viking lore has been revealed. With their secretive poetic lore and mysterious pantheon of gods led by Odin the All-Father; Thor, the great Hammer-Striker; and Loki, the Evil One, it is almost impossible not to love the Vikings. But there are even more fans of the multi-faceted yoga systems devised by the ancient Hindustani in India more than five thousand years ago. Steven A. Key makes the case that transcendental yoga has not only endured over the millennia, but that it has traveled in different forms of spiritual or religious expression. Drawing on the writings of Joseph Campbell, the famous mythologist who hinted at a link between the cultures of the Eastern Hindus and the Northern Vikings, as well as other great thinkers, the author shows that yoga has influenced Buddhism, Christianity, and yes - even the tenth-century Vikings. Steven A. Key had a career taming Mainframes, the largest computer systems in the world. As a researcher and technocrat, he combines proven investigative skills with his deep personal interests in all things pertaining to body-mind and spirit, to create the provocative New Muse Book Series.

The Viking's Skull
The Viking's Highland Lass
Author: Terry Spear
Publisher: Terry Spear
ISBN: 1633110117
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 184
Book Description
Gunnolf was left for dead when he was young as he went on one of his kin’s raids, but finds his way to the Highlands and a home with the MacNeill Clan. The clan’s seer warns him he must rescue a woman in need, only he rescues the wrong woman. Yet, Brina is in need. Her father, wounded in battle by Gunnolf’s own kind, must oust the tyrant who has taken his place if he is to rule. Yet he needs Gunnolf’s help, but Gunnolf learns Brina’s father had killed Gunnolf’s brother. Brina is torn between hating the Viking who has rescued her, and knowing that his kin had killed her grandfather in an age old tale of fighting between their people, and loving the man who took her under his protection, and the wolf cub she insisted on rescuing. Now, Gunnolf must make a choice: wed the lass as her father has insisted and restore her father’s position as chief of his clan when he’s not sure her father is trustworthy, hoping he can obtain a peace between his people and hers, or leave well enough alone and stay with the MacNeill clan, his family for the past ten years. The problem is one sweet Highland lass that makes him want a woman—this woman—to warm his bed and have his bairns and to protect and cherish, when having a wife was the furthest notion from his mind…until one prediction changed his whole life.
