Daughter of Doom
by Jean-Claude Van Rijckeghem
Denmark, 870 AD. Yrsa knows her place in the village of Mimir's Stool. Though she was born with a crooked foot, she's never let anyone underestimate her; after all, she's the daughter of Toke the helmsman and granddaughter of the fearsome warrior Gudrun the Torch (who, according to legend, stood before the walls of Paris, splattered in the blood of Frankish warriors). And no one else in the village shares her ability to see what the Norns, the three weavers who live under the roots of Yggdrasil, the world tree, and craft people's fates, have in store for them. One day the men return from a raid with a high-ranking hostage, Sister Job, and though the two girls couldn't be more different, they look out for one another. And when one of the villagers viciously assaults Sister Job and she and Yrsa mortally wound him in self-defense, they're forced to take to the sea to escape the wrath of the warriors of Mimir's Stool, and worse, the wrath of the gods. Can either of them escape their fate? Do they even want to?
