*But*, Floki was chained in a cave with water dripping onto him, similar to Loki being chained with the serpent’s venom dripping on him.
And Floki has often been an agent of chaos.
Perhaps a nod to the original myths.
I miss Aethelstan.

Athelstan got to be a bore. First he was a Christian. Then he was a heathen. Then he was a Christian again. Then he was a heathen. Then he was dead.
The only good thing Floki has done is kill that vacillating Hamlet.
I haven't watched any of the new season. It was getting tiresome.

No...but I might based on your recommendation. I saw the preview for it on BBC and immediately set up a weekly recording.

But Athelstan represented the larger issue of the eventual conversion of heathen Vikings to Christianity.
For example, Rollo.

Yeah, I get that. But it was tedious and overdone. In the end, as far as I could tell, he didn’t stand for anything.

If he was the son of a Hun, wouldn’t he have Asiatic ancestry?

No...but I might based on your recommendation. It's a high recommendation. The Saxon series is my favorite...but then whatever series I'm reading at the time becomes my favorite. I'm driving to Atlanta next week so I just picked up the first two audio books in the Sharpe series.

If the Koelner Dom is bombed, there will be dead Muslims all across Germany. We will have had enough.

If Americans hold English or French ancestry, Old Rollo was a busy fellow.
