In the midst of Viking invasions and wars to overtake kingdoms in 9th century, the value of life is greatly diminished.  Innocent men, women and children are sacrificed for the sake of control.  When tragedy strikes his land, Daniel (a priest in training) watches in awe as he is rescued right before meeting his own demise.  Afterward intrigue sets in and he makes a split decision to accompany this warrior who he feels is a guardian angel and can save others.  During his travels, his faith and everything he was taught to believe is challenged in so many ways that pure fear is injected into his soul.  Daniel manages to endure long enough to learn about how special he is in the spiritual realm, and this affords him the strength he needs to continue his quest and seek clear answers to all of his questions.  What he is not sure of is if he will survive once the truth is made manifest.Sanctuary by Kris Kramer was a very fascinating read.  Once I started, I was pulled into Daniel’s struggle.  The time period in which it is set adds to the physical, emotional and spiritual plight that he was faced with in order to complete his journey.  Mostly anyone with a spiritual background can identify with his voyage to prove what truth is in the face of an environment that only yields opposition.  I love how the author showed his weaknesses, indicating that spiritual pursuit requires honesty with self in order to complete this task.  Readers who love who love religious and/or historic pieces from this era would enjoy this read.
