Olaf Tryggvason: The Viking King Who Converted Norway by Burning His People Alive
How does a man go from an enslaved child in Estonia to the most feared Christian crusader in the Viking Age? Olaf Tryggvason returned to Norway with a violent mandate: convert the nation or die. Through calculated terror, hostage-taking, and brutal executions, he dismantled the old pagan ways across the North Atlantic, yet his reign ended as abruptly as it began. We trace his transformation from a mercenary in the Rus' court to a king who vanished into the waves at the Battle of Svolder. Discover the true cost of a holy war that reshaped the North and the mystery behind the king who refused to be captured.
