Valhalla Rising

The mix of ancient legends and contemporary thrillers kept me guessing. I'm curious if this approach was planned from the start or evolved during writing.

There were moments where the story sped up and then slowed down unexpectedly. Was that intentional to build suspense or just a natural flow?

The setting felt almost like a character itself, rich with history and mystery. Wondering if the author based it on real places or created it from scratch.
