Book Rating
This is the final(?) entry in Angus Donald's 'Fire Born' series about the Viking berserker Bjarki Bloodhand in the time of Charlemagne, a series which - will enjoyable enough - has never *quite* managed to hit the heights of his Robin Hood 'Outlaw Chronicles' series of novels.

Here, we have Bjarki living a quiet life at the start of the novel, before events transpire to drag him - and his sister Tor - back into the conflict between the Christian Franks and the pagan Danes/Saxons, events that culminate in one of the few Frankish (temporary) defeats.

Worth a read? Yes.
As good as the Outlaw Chronicles series? No.

Newest - at the time of reviewing - entry in the MCU, with Florence Pugh taking the lead (and with David Harbour mostly providing the comic relief), suffering from depression after the loss of her sister (Black Widow) and listlessly going about her assignments, until she finds herself ensnared in a death trap and forced to team-up with a similar group of misfits (and Bob) to escape.

I have to say, I found this one of the more enjoyable MCU movies in their recent post-Endgame run; found myself emphasising quite a bit with some of the characters (Bob) and appreciated the message behind it all.
