I know, not Viking-related, but I'm also a sucker for US history and adventure-laden family sagas that span generations. The Mallory Saga from Paul Bennett hits all the marks! Book 10 is in the works, so now is a good time to jump in!

It's hard to get my head around the fact that our nation is now standing on the side of Putin because of this embarrassment of a president and vice president. Shameful.

January was named after the two-faced god Janus, who looked back at the past and faced the future. The first month of the Roman calendar was the time for officials to pledge/renew their vows of loyalty to Rome — the origin of our modern New Year's resolutions.
