Opis

The tale of Freydis Eriksdottir is only mentioned in two of the Icelandic Sagas, circa 1000A.D.. She is immortalized as a ruthless, bloodthirsty barbarian who wreaked havoc not only on the Native American population, but also on her own partners and countrymen. But was she a vicious killer, or a woman who has been demonized down through the ages? The illegitimate daughter of Erik the Red, Freydis was one of the first Europeans to explore the North American coast they called Vinland. This is her story, told from the viewpoint of a slave who accompanied her on these travels. It is a tale of adventure, a story of love and loss and regret. It is the saga of Freydis, the Red Daughter, and the expedition that marked her in Norse history as the darkest of villains.
