The Saga of Hasting the Avenger The Empress and Her Wolf, Book 5, (Paperback)

<b>Power. Revenge. Forbidden love in the heart of a dying empire.</b> <p>When Viking warlord Hasting arrives at the gates of <b>Constantinople</b>, he knows he can't conquer it. Not with deeds of arms alone. But fate has other plans. </p><p>A failed raid turns into a devil's bargain: serve Empress Theodora as her sword-for-hire, or die. Hasting chooses survival and quickly proves himself more capable than the generals she no longer trusts. But the empire is a viper's nest of betrayal, and when an attempt to scare off his men ends in the death of his lover, Hasting's mission changes. </p><p><b>He came for wealth and glory. Now, he wants blood.</b> </p><p>But revenge in Miklagard is no simple feat. The city runs on whispers, not war cries. Enemies hide behind silks and smiles. And as Hasting grows closer to the empress-ally, ruler, and eventually lover-he finds himself torn between love and vengeance. </p><p>One wrong move could cost him everything. </p><p><b>Perfect for fans of Bernard Cornwell, Giles Kristian, Peter Gibbons, and Conn Iggulden, <i>The Empress and Her Wolf</i> is a heart-pounding saga of war, loyalty, and ambition set against the glittering, dangerous world of the Byzantine Empire.</b></p>
