Excerpt from Valhalla: A Novel
And he had no wish to live. So as long as he was alone he was indifferent, but when all others had died, he was by himself no longer, and he knew it - the kingdom of Valhalla had begun but he was not afraid, for his nature had changed to meet the new order of things in the world around him.
The spirits began to work for him. 80 soon as he came down in the' morning he found food set out for him by invisible hands. If he wanted his horse, he had only to walk out to the stable and there it was ready with saddle and bridle on, while all animals seemed entirely under his control.
He now wished to see what had come to the country, to the world, and at once an unseen force urged him on.
