Becca the Viking & The Heavenly Runes Book 2, The Voyage To Aachen, is a wonderful continuation of Book I. With exciting battles at sea and on land, there is no end to the extraordinary strategies that Becca must employ, to ensure the safety of himself and his crew, his ship and the success of his missions. Always looking for the best in all peoples, Becca the Viking and the barbarian shows more heartfelt compassion than most other people. Yet all these things that he does are inspired from on high, and favor flows his way throughout his missions. Yet there are lessons that we can glean from Becca The Red, one of humility, kindness and generosity even towards the worst of men like Gregorio and Cheese-slicer. Becca has proven that he can fight like a brave warrior and yet have the compassion of a priest. But is there such a thing as too much compassion especially for a Viking warrior?
