  In a land ruled by tradition and bloodbound oaths, young Ragnar Ivarsson learned of his famed father’s demise. The gods are silen, patiently observing from the shadows. Jarl Hastein demands nothing but strict obedience. And the ancient code forbids shieldmaidens from raising steel alongside their Viking counterparts, on foreign shores. 
  Alongside a secret band of outlaw warriors. Ragnar Lothbrok dares to accomplish what others fear: a voyage into the unknown west from the icy shores of Hordaland. Their mission will defy their people, their leaders, and their gods. And when their longships strike the holy shores of Lindisfarne in 793 AD, history will be changed forever. 
  Blood will be spilled. Legends will be born. And the forgotten will rise. 
  The Forgotten Warriors is a gripping Viking-era historical novel for fans of The Last Kingdom, Giles Kristian, and Bernard Cornwell.

  Berlin, 1938 
  It’s no longer safe here. 
  When the Jewish families of Berlin start disappearing in nightly raids, 21-year-old Jacob Kagan knows it’s only a matter of time before the trucks come for him. Along with his family and best friend, he flees the country he’s always called home to find shelter in a Dutch refugee camp. Before long, the Netherlands falls to the Nazi war machine — Jacob’s new home is transformed into a transit camp with weekly trains bound for the horrors of the Eastern concentration camps. 
  Handpicked by the cruel new SS regime to police the camp’s Jewish population, Jacob has the opportunity to save his parents and best friend from the dreaded transport lists — but at what cost? 
  Based on true events, Beyond the Tracks is a redemptive story of unconditional loyalty and a will to survive at impossible odds.
