Samenvatting

Somewhere between getting sentenced to death by the king of England, avoiding execution only to be kidnapped by Viking slave merchants, and being robbed of his beloved foster family by a ruthless, power-hungry monarch, Gabriel has become obsessed with revenge. It helps a bit that, during his years of enslavement in Iceland, he was forced to take part in a perverse mimicry of gladiatorial "Roman games" while Vikings made wagers against his survival.

When Brylieva encounters a mysterious figure prowling around her camp during a downpour one night, she immediately reaches for her bow and quiver.

But soon they are tracked down by Matilda's men, and Brylieva allows herself to be captured in hopes of saving Gabriel's life.

Hoe controleren en plaatsen wij reviews? Hoe controleren en plaatsen wij reviews?

Negatief, positief, neutraal: we zetten een review altijd online. We controleren wel eerst of ’ie voldoet aan onze reviewvoorwaarden en niet nep is. We controleren ook of ’ie is geschreven door iemand die het artikel heeft gekocht via bol.com en zetten dit er dan bij. De controles gebeuren automatisch, al kijken er soms mensen mee. Bol.com betaalt niet voor reviews. Als een reviewer door een andere partij is vergoed, staat dit in de review zelf.
