The hero in particular is by far the most intense and deeply sensual character I have come across in the last two decades of reading romance novels - the major reason I read this again each year or so. Why don't some historical authors get it into their heads that when they w This could have been a good story but It is a small, subtle tiny thing that says even the smallest change in the past can affect the future. If I had read this last one in closer succession, I would have been completely enthralled. The author included an interesting idea with the romance between Jane and Sir Daffyd. Fell in love with all the characters. Apr 29, Clemens Schoonderwoert rated it it was amazing. This is mainly because the narrator's one voice fits all. Susan Sizemore. Perhaps someone like Ragnar Lothbrook, his sons or Harald Hardrada? If you liked the first two parts, then this book is the icing on the cake. Loved all three but this may be the best one of the series. She's mad at him for a few pages, but don't worry, true love saves the day. I highly recommend this. There are some nice twists to the plot and how Sigurd builds his army is great fun. Wings of the Storm brought to close Sigurd's quest to avenge his father and brothers.

  • Untitled Warrior Olympics Project, for Neal Moritz and Sony; San Andreas 2, with New Line; and Rampage, Also Through New Line, with Dwayne Johnson Attached to Star
    Short Synopsis After a single-mother (Carice van Houten) witnesses terrifying symptoms of demonic possession in her 11-year-old son (David Mazouz), a Vatican representative (Catalina Sandino Moreno) calls on wheelchair-bound scientist Dr. Seth Ember (Aaron Eckhart) to rid him of the evil spirit. Driven by a personal agenda rooted in his own tragic past, Ember enters the boy’s unconscious mind where he confronts a demon as ferocious as it is ingenious. Long Synopsis Eleven-year-old Cameron (David Mazouz) alarms his single mother Lindsay (Carice van Houten) when he begins isolating himself on the floor of his dark room, speaking in ancient languages and displaying other symptoms of demonic possession. Alerted to the situation, Vatican representative Camilla (Catalina Sandino Moreno) recruits wheelchair- bound scientist Dr. Seth Ember (Aaron Eckhart) to extract the evil spirit from the boy. A non-believer who drinks, smokes and prefers to think of his work as “eviction” rather than exorcism, Ember sets up shop with high-tech assistants Riley (Emily Jackson) and Oliver (Keir O’Donnell). Strapped into a life-support system, he enters Cameron’s subconscious mind, where the demon holds the boy captive in an imaginary dream world by appealing to his deepest desire: to be reunited with his estranged father Dan (Matt Nable). Driven by tragic events in his own traumatic past, Ember engages in a fierce battle with the crafty spirit. Ever mindful that the demon, known as “Maggie,” travels from one victim to the next through physical contact, Ember knows that his desperate attempt to save Cameron’s soul could make him the demon’s next host.
