About this listen

Bloomsbury presents Sword of the War God by Tim Hodkinson, read by Justin Avoth.

In a world of war and ruin, men and gods collide.

436 AD. The Burgundars are confident of destroying Rome's legions. Their forces are strong and they have beaten the Romans in battle before. But they are annihilated, their king killed, his people scattered. Their fabled treasure is lost. For Rome has new allies: the Huns, whose taste for bloodshed knows no bounds.

Many years later, the Huns, led by the fearsome Attila, have become the deadliest enemies of Rome. Attila seeks the Burgundars’ treasure, for it includes the legendary Sword of the War God, said to make the bearer unbeatable.

No alliance can defeat Attila by conventional means. With Rome desperate for help, a one-eyed old warlord from distant lands and his strange band of warriors may have the answers... but oaths will be broken and the plains of Europe will run with blood before the end.

Drawing on Norse mythology and European history, Sword of the War God is an epic historical adventure perfect for fans of Bernard Cornwell, Joanne Harris, Neil Gaiman and Christian Cameron.

Tom Hodkinson knocked this one out of the park! Enjoyed from start to finish, loved the nod to Norse mythology.

Fantastic

Another fantastic Tim Hodkinson book following a fictional character through historical events. A really immersive book that is well read and it has kept me glued to every word and chapter as it wove its tale
