I've read the first two Robert Low books and really enjoyed them. They're a break from Roman stuff, which I live and breathe. Reading the interview just brought the Vikings back. I have to get the third one now (guilt, as it's been out in the UK for about 3 months) and add it to my TBR pile. Great interview. I’ve read the first two Robert Low books and really enjoyed them.

And what a great cover, I'd buy the book on the strength of that alone. Thea, on the Brough of Birsay, a tidal island in Orkney which was home first to a Pictish settlement and later to a Norse one, there are the remains of some quite impressive plumbing arrangements for bathing. I'm pretty sure those are part of the Norse phase of building. So at least some Vikings were into bathing. When not leaping off the prow of the longship or whatever, even the berserkers led surprisingly domesticated lives, if the sagas are to be believed. I must read these!
