It started with sneaking peeks at my eldest brother’s collection of Conan the Barbarian comic books and developed into a full blown obsession with heroes. Of course what I read and wrote is another story.

As a highly imaginative child, prone to telling tall tales, reading and writing came naturally. I asked Violetta to tell us what she loves about Vikings and what inspired her latest story. My guest today is Violetta Rand, author of Viking novels Blind Allegiance and Blind Mercy, who will be giving away her first novel, Blind Allegiance to one lucky commenter (so leave your email or send it to me!). Let me know if I’ve missed one you love! I know there are good ones out there and I am always looking for a great Viking romance.
