Default Free Book! Norse Mythology: Draugr

http://arthurslade.blogspot.com/

My cousin Arthur Slade is a Canadian award winning Writer and I thought I'd introduce CP to his Books. In his blog he is offering his book "Draugr" for free for a finite time (I don't know how long). He didn't ask me to post this here; I just thought it would be a good win for both.

Oh, and he's cheering for the nucks to lose.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draugr

A draugr or draug (original Old Norse plural draugar, as used here, not "draugrs"), or draugen (Norwegian, Swedish and Danish, meaning "the draug"), also known as aptrgangr (literally "again-walker", or "one who walks after death") is an undead creature from Norse mythology. The original Norse meaning of the word is ghost, and older literature makes clear distinctions between sea-draug and land-draug. Draugar were believed to live in the graves of dead Vikings, being the body of the dead. As the graves of important men often contained a good amount of wealth, the draugr jealously guards his treasures, even after death.

Anyway, his books are for Teens, young adults, much like the Harry Potter series, but cooler than Potter IMO. Take a gander and enjoy the read!
