Another excellent Horrible History - By: , 08 Mar 2004 
This book is just one of the many Horrible Histories I have investedin over the years & it is just as informative, funny & useful as the others.
It includes all the information other books do not have, & is the reason why I am so interestedin history. This book includes hilarious cartoons by Martin Brown, instructions on how to build a boat, well-told stories rewritten by Terry Deary. Buy this & all the others!
I love it - By: , 22 Aug 2001 I love this book because it gives the most gory details about how the Vikings lived. It tells us the most boring factsin a gory & interesting way. I have read it twice & I think it is brilliant.
A really great book - By: , 01 Mar 2001 The vicious vikings is a book that tells you about what vikings did on their raids. It has a timeline just on vikings. This is a great book although it doesn't really appeal to younger children because it is a bit grisly. Once you start reading you'll have trouble putting the book down.
