Synopsis "Queen of America episodes I-IV: The saga of a Viking shieldmaiden"

Low priced teaser edition, contains episodes I-IV of eight. "Freya was born into Viking nobility on Greenland but yearned for a life of her own. Awkwardly tall, with striking white hair and piercing eyes she knew the men and boys who sought her out were not there to woo her, but to win her Father's lands. So when her hapless brother Leif returned from a failed attempt to locate the mysterious land far to the west of Greenland, the land known as Vinland The Good, she began making her plans. She trained with Viking warriors, she bargained with merchants, she sold to the settlers her vision of a new life, a new land of unfathomable riches. And shortly after her 17th birthday, she had her Father's assent and two strong ships, ready to sail. But she hadn't reckoned on her brother's jealousy, nor the dark prophecies of the old witch, Gudrid." The Queen of America series is based on the true story of Viking exploration of America around the year 1000 AD. The story is written in short 'TV series' style chapters with each chapter featuring a crisis to be resolved, and a running theme that explores the question of why, after founding a colony in North America at the turn of the first century, the Vikings abandoned it after only a few years. The story centers on an unusual figure in the Viking 'Vinland sagas', Freydis 'Freya' Eriksdottir, daughter of Erik the Red, lord of Greenland. She was central to the story of the second Viking voyage to North America after that of Erik's son Leif, and in my opinion was a much more interesting character!
