Reviews
"Vimp the Viking’s Epic Voyage is the first novel in a rollicking Viking trilogy for young adults by Peter L. Ward. Mixing elements of Norse mythology, adventure, cheeky humor, romance and magic, this page-turning read follows a young band of Viking tweens as they try to escape a destiny of violence. Full Blueink revue
“Peter L Ward has the makings of a great story here, and Steve Crisp’s illustrations nicely complement Ward’s book, bringing some of the characters and battles vividly to life” Foreword Reviews
“…at the heart of this epic voyage is an exciting story about bravery and the many forms it can take, including the choice not to fight. It’s also the first book of a trilogy, so there’s time for characters to grow and explore their new surroundings…a strong start to what looks like a good series.” Foreword Reviews
“The next few days of the absconders’ lives are filled with a steady stream of demons, serpents, killer fogs, a poisonous purple haze and one angry sea god, all of which keep the pace scooting along and the suspense quotient up in the red zone…A flashy adventure tale that’s sure to make young readers laugh.” Kirkus Reviews
