Summary: "The Viking's Skull" by John R. Carling is a historical novel written in the early 20th century. The story unfolds in quaint Brittany, focusing on the life of an English lady named Edith Breakspear and her son Idris, whose mysterious past and ties to a powerful ancient artifact—the Viking altar-ring—set the stage for a tale of intrigue, loss, and vengeance. The novel delves into themes of identity, heritage, and the echoes of history that resonate through the lives of its characters. At the start of the narrative, we are introduced to the little town of Quilaix, where Edith Breakspear lives with her son. Edith, cloaked in sorrow and mourning, creates a veil of mystery around herself, which intrigues the local townsfolk. The relationship between mother and son becomes the backdrop for the story as they navigate their isolated existence while hints of Edith's past and her husband's wrongful imprisonment emerge. When Edith reveals to Idris the importance of the ancient runic ring in their lives, the tale begins to intertwine love and loss with the secrets and dangers that their heritage brings into play.
