Catalogue synopsis
Project Gutenberg supplies this automated synopsis of the opening text:
"A Sea Queen's Sailing" by Charles W. Whistler is a historical novel written in the early 20th century. The story unfolds in a Viking age setting, following the character Malcolm, the last surviving heir of his family, as he navigates themes of survival, loss, and adventure. The backdrop consists of Viking culture, battles, and the quest for glory, often explored through the dealings of feuding clans and the perils of the sea. The opening portion of the narrative introduces Malcolm amidst the destruction of his home, where he and his fellow warriors are attacked by a band of marauders led by Heidrek the Seafarer. Malcolm's life drastically changes when he finds himself captured along with others after defending his home. Despite the despair and loss, hope arises when Asbiorn, the son of Heidrek, offers Malcolm and his companions a chance of survival following a fierce battle. The complexity of the relationships, political intrigues, and the rich detail of Viking customs create a vivid landscape, setting the stage for Malcolm’s journey and the adventures that lie ahead.
