This is why writers use peg boards to line up their stories, before they sit down and write them. This story was lacking in so many areas, and had details in areas that could have been left out.The beginning started out alright, but after the ball started rolling, it began to crumble. I began to lose touch with the story, and found my self checking the scroll bar to see how much more I had left to read. Short stories are fun, but this one was more like a drawn out sex scene that wouldn't quit. If you read shorties for the erotic aspect, you may like it, but if you read for the story, you won't find it here.Not all Vikings are nice people like you see in Dreamworks' dragon cartoons. And these vikings would never have survived in the real world. Such a shame that good writing wasn't enough to sustain this story. And I was able to see the potential in it, but it never came close to it. In the end, it was just another short story to scratch off the list.
