About this listen

Abducted as a child from his tribe in the New World, Hawk has spent the last 15 years traveling medieval Europe as a huntsman for hire. All the while, he hopes to find and enact revenge upon the Norsemen raiders who murdered his family. This quest brings him to twelfth century Scotland’s Kingdom of Alba where he is propositioned by the king. In exchange for slaying a mysterious beast, the king will share information about Hawk’s kidnappers.

Hawk’s epic journey begins. He joins forces with a mysterious noblewoman, a chivalrous knight, and a witty and fearless warrior named Mòrag—all of whom seek the evil Norsemen. But as the kingdom falls apart at the hands of warring clans and his companions’ secret pasts threaten their quest and their lives, Hawk becomes ever more determined to not let his hunt for revenge fail.

But will his resolve aid him in his mission, or will vengeance blind him from what is truly important?

Written by renowned fantasy author Dr. Doug Chapman, The Huntsman of Alba is the first installation of the Huntsman of Alba series.

The Huntsman of Alba introduces a unique setting, weaving a gripping story through the history, mythos and culture of medieval and ancient Scotland, Scandinavia and even Native America. The world building is well rooted in actual geographical locations in Scotland- places which already hold a magic which the author harnesses and illustrates in often forgotten historical myth If you liked the Witcher books, Game of Thrones, the Chronicles of Ancient Darkness series, Scottish medieval history or Celtic mythology then this book is for you.
The audio production in particular has no right being as good as it is for an independently published novel- and you will probably learn some Gaelic along the way

Unique blend of fantasy fiction, Gaelic myth and Scottish history with great production
