Shifting allegiances. A curse unbroken. Danger prowling around every corner.

While the strands that wove Astrid and Bjorn together have grown strong, new challenges threaten to unravel what they have created.

After allying with his brother-by-law and enemy, Bjorn finds himself out of favor with his chieftain, and must navigate the tricky waters of changing oaths and deep-rooted blood feuds.

Out of the chaos, Astrid must unearth a deep well of courage to protect her loved ones and herself. Her hard-won love of Bjorn is put to the test as new families are created and old family ties renewed.

As the Warrior and the Weaver, the Hero and the Healer, Bjorn and Astrid must use all the tools they possess to overcome their enemies and forge a new life.

Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

K.S. Barton writes historical fiction and fantasy stories of love and adventure set in the Viking age. The author of three novels, she explores themes of family, honor, and strength all within the backdrop of Norse society. When doing research on Norse mythology for a teaching project, she discovered the Norse sagas and decided that she wanted to write fiction about Vikings. She believes there is magic in storytelling and enjoys writing about family dynamics, in explorations of love, bravery, betrayal, community, and the complex moral dilemmas that arise out of those issues. Of course, no story of Vikings would be complete without male warriors and fighting, so there is plenty of that in her books, too!

She has an M.A. in Humanities with a focus on literature and history and has always loved to learn about history through stories. She resides in sunny Southern Arizona.

    I just finished the third and last book of this series. I am not a big fan of series, but this one was so compelling, I read them all in a row. The stories and characters are great and it was hard to stop reading late into the night! As I said in a previous review, the biggest detractor for me in these books were the frequent and prolonged sex scenes which were just unnecessary. I tired of hearing about the gasps, moans, groans and heat between Astrid and Bjorn. I felt the book would have been elevated to a higher level had the author just alluded to most of the steamy scenes rather than spelling them out in detail. I got to the point where I just skimmed over those sections so I could get to the good parts. I look forward to reading more from this author and will read Raven Marked next.

    Hero and Healer was an exciting read. I found it difficult to put the story down. No housework or cooking...nothing...was accomplished this weekend. After all the excitement in the previous two books, I couldn't imagine that our storyteller could create a better saga, but she certainly did! I sincerely recommend enjoying this third episode. The Viking life with Astrid and Bjorn does not disappoint the reader! I'm looking forward to enjoying the author's further writings!

    Even though Astrid and Bjorn start the book on stronger ground, they face constant threats from people on the outside. They both need to find inner strength to change and survive danger. This book was a total page-turner. I loved it. A very satisfying conclusion to the series.

    This tale of Astrid and Bjorn has kept me completely engaged through all three Norse Family Saga books. I hope there's more from Ms. Barton. She has a wonderful talent and I want more.

    I couldn’t put any of the books in this trilogy down, a huge fan of Norse historical fiction, it has been so refreshing to read a saga from the female perspective, the depth of narrative and characters leave you turning page after page long after bedtime. A must read for anyone seeking a thrilling, emotive tale packed full of intrigue and adventure
