SynopsisFrom the bestselling author of Jurassic Park , an epic tale of unspeakable horror The year is A.D. 922. A refined Arab courtier, representative of the powerful Caliph of Baghdad, encounters a party of Viking warriors who are journeying to the barbaric North. He is appalled by their Viking customs--the wanton sexuality of their pale, angular women, their disregard for cleanliness . . . their cold-blooded human sacrifices. But it is not until they reach the depths of the Northland that the courtier learns the horrifying and inescapable truth: he has been enlisted by these savage, inscrutable warriors to help combat a terror that plagues them--a monstrosity that emerges under cover of night to slaughter the Vikings and devour their flesh . . . "Crichton knows how to craft a tale, one that keeps the reader turning the pages."-- Houston Chronicle "Michael Crichton is one of our most gifted popular novelists. A true son of Jules Verne and H.
