Thanks Tim, this encourages me to say some more. You cannot learn more and easier about that time (Vikings, Moors (1st Arabs in Europe), early Christianity, Kind Harald "Bluetooth" (yeah! that one!!!) of Denmark)
F. Bengtsson wrote this as an adventurous and fun novel, but always with
the knowledge of the historian he was! The best way to get the look and
feel of that time!

Hope this link survives. Else: put Frans Bengtsson into the search
engine of your favourite book seller!
