Book Reviews of The Son Avenger: Volume IV of The Master of Hestviken
Book Review: Breathtaking.
Summary: 5 Stars
Sigrid Undset's writing has an incredible gift for transporting her readers back to Medieval Norway; at times I felt as if I was a daughter of Vikings, gazing over the fjords and breathing the salty sea-air.
Parts of this concluding book to the saga-like Tetralogy make me laugh, and other parts brought tears to my eyes. One of my very favorite scenes, when Eirik says his vows before entering the monastery, was deeply moving to me. The imagery is remarkable, as is the revealed inner thoughts of the incredibly well-developed characters.
I have read only eight of Undset's books, but I believe that every page that I've read has touched my heart. Her ability to see the "big picture" is truly remarkable.
