Frisia, 1055. Reginhard, bored with his mundane village life, yearns for action, adventure, and acclaim. But when he is on the precipice of his new journey, calamity strikes. Smoke billows in the distance, as his village has fallen victim to the merciless wrath of Ragnar Ivarson-a formidable Viking adversary with a blood-soaked vendetta.
The once-thriving village is reduced to smoldering ruins, its inhabitants slaughtered without mercy. Betrayal and treachery lurk around every corner as Reginhard seeks refuge in the arms of the bishop's court at Wiltenburg. The bishop, recognizing Reginhard's thirst for justice, entrusts him with a sacred mission that holds the key to shaping his destiny - to reclaim the sacred ring of Saint Willibrord.
With his loyal friend, Frethirik, Reginhard embarks on a perilous journey, propelling him to England and headlong into a brutal war with the Welsh, where relentless foes lie in wait.
Yet, as Reginhard's quest unfolds, the flames of love flicker amidst the shadows of uncertainty. Amid danger and chaos, he encounters Ciara - a spirited Irish chieftain's daughter who defies societal norms and captures his heart. Their love blossoms against all odds, providing a beacon of light in the darkness.
From the clash of swords on the battlefield to the whispered secrets in the halls of power, Reginhard's resilience and determination is tested.
Will Reginhard triumph in his quest, or die ensnared in a ruthless web of betrayal?
Richard van der Ven masterfully transports you back in time, immersing you in a vibrant medieval world of sights, sounds, and emotions. From the thundering hooves of horses to the clash of steel in the heat of battle, every detail is brought to life with vivid intensity.
The Frisian is not just a tale of history-it is a visceral experience that will ignite your imagination, stir your soul, and leave you breathless. Join Reginhard on his extraordinary journey of vengeance, betrayal, and love.

Most authentic book compilation on the Oregon Trail I ever read. The way the diaries are brought to life from over 170 years ago is a remarkable achievement. Top book of year so far for me for today June 01, 2024 review Candice
This author is a breathe of fresh air in a world of lies and coverups. He brings ancient writings and new science to bring light to mankind. In this amazing work, the well known plato stories from antiquity are now put alongside this new discovery of tablets from beginning of time. This is the most complete explanation of Atlantis every brought to the public. Shame on the governments of Egypt and the world for hiding WHO BUILT THE PHYRAMIDS OF GIZA AND THE SPHINX. Once I read this book I knew why they hid this knowledge. They don't want a population to know how great the world used to be compared to know.
Randomly stumbled upon this book and I am shocked that I haven’t heard about it before. It’s hands down the best story I’ve read in years. People need to read this book. It needs to be turned into a book. This story is just plain awsome. M
This soulful book of personal poetry brought me into the past and into the present---and into my heart.
Read the first book and this 2nd one did not disappoint! Loved every chapter. More please!
