Can you recommend some good Viking fantasy novels related to 'the broken sword'?

Another important theme is the role of magic. In the Viking fantasy context, magic might be intertwined with the Norse gods and mythology. For example, a broken sword could be a magical artifact with special powers or a symbol of a broken covenant with the gods. The exploration of this magic adds an element of mystery and wonder to the story. Also, the theme of fate is prominent. The Vikings believed in fate, and in these novels, the characters' destinies are often shaped by forces beyond their control, whether it's the will of the gods or the consequences of past actions.

Sure. 'The Saxon Tales' series by Bernard Cornwell has elements that touch on Viking history and the conflicts involving crosses and swords. It vividly depicts the battles and cultural clashes of that era.
