In the year 872, a fatherless Norse boy named Arne discovers a mysterious runestone bearing a single name: Lutro. What begins as a search for identity becomes an epic journey spanning more than a millennium, carrying one family through Viking Norway, Norman conquest, medieval England, troubled Ireland, and the untamed frontiers of America.
Kings rise. Empires fall. Religions change. Nations are born and destroyed.
Yet the line endures.
Through warriors, settlers, rebels, farmers, immigrants, and dreamers, The Saga of Lutro follows generation after generation as they struggle against war, betrayal, famine, exile, and the relentless passage of time. Each descendant inherits more than blood—they inherit a story, a mystery, and a connection to ancestors they will never know.
Blending historical fiction, genealogy, myth, and family saga, this sweeping novel explores one timeless question:
How much of who we are was decided long before we were born?
From the fjords of Scandinavia to the forests of America, The Saga of Lutro is a powerful tale of ancestry, identity, resilience, and the invisible threads that bind the living to the dead.
A 1400 year-long tale of blood and bone, of ice and stone.
The Saga of Lutro is the story behind the history. If the documentary explains where your ancestors came from, this novel lets you walk beside them. It transforms names, migrations, and forgotten history into the life of one boy whose search for his father becomes the search for an entire people.

Multi-generational family sagas
Viking and Norse historical fiction
Genealogical mysteries
Epic historical adventures
Stories of migration and survival

The Repatriated Series is a sweeping 300‑year alternate‑history epic that begins with a single, world‑altering divergence: what if every African American were forcibly repatriated to West Africa in the early 1800s? From that moment, a new Liberia emerges—one forged not by chance, but by collision, conflict, and the relentless will to survive.
Across three novels, a compressed companion volume, and a prequel the series follows the Freeman lineage and the nation they help shape as Liberia transforms from a fragile settlement into the philosophical center of a reimagined world. The story blends historical realism, political drama, generational saga, and speculative philosophy into a unified mythos about identity, belonging, power, and the fragile coherence that holds civilizations together.
Do you like to dive into a series? 300+ years of story. The Repatriated series covers 5 books:
Book #1 = Condensed "explainer" book without spoilers.
Book #2 = Freeman's Flee USA.
Book #3 = A Nation is born.
Book #4 = A world rises & falls.
Book #5 = A backstory told
Book 1: Repatriated — The America That Might Have Been
The companion "explainer" volume is a distilled, high‑density retelling of the entire 300‑year saga. It functions as a structural map, a conceptual index, and a narrative bridge—perfect for readers who want the full scope of the series in a single, streamlined experience. It is not nonfiction; it is the series in its most concentrated form without spoilers.
Book 2: Repatriated — Re‑Roots
The series opens in the 1820s as Americo‑Liberian settlers (Dongo), indigenous Gola tribes, Freeborn elites, and Congo recaptives collide in a land none of them fully understand. Through Josiah Freeman, Mercy, Elijah/Gbawa, Sarah Dunbar, and Kpannah, the novel explores the birth of a nation that should not exist—yet refuses to die. This is the century of roots: fragile alliances, cultural clashes, political awakening, and the first meaning of Measuagoon—“One Word, One People.”
Book 3: Repatriated — Sons of the Soil
Spanning the late 1800s through the mid‑1900s, the second novel chronicles Liberia’s transformation into a functioning state and a contested power. The phrase “sons of the soil” becomes both a unifying idea and a political weapon. Gold discoveries reshape the coast. Foreign covenants test Liberia’s sovereignty. Internal factions rise and fall. The Freeman family becomes a symbol of both unity and division. This is the century of power—nation‑building, betrayal, ambition, and the first great fractures that threaten to tear Liberia apart.
Book 4: Repatriated — Coherence
The final novel expands the story into a global, philosophical epic. Beginning in the aftermath of World War II and extending into the next century, Liberia becomes the unlikely center of world order. The Wordkeepers, the Measuagoon Charter, and the Coherence movement redefine how humanity understands truth itself. But global alliances crumble, ideological insurgencies rise, and the world fractures under the weight of its own contradictions. Liberia faces its greatest test as AxisA, the Waking, and the Reclaimers push civilization toward collapse. This is the century of truth—where the fate of the world hinges on whether coherence can survive chaos.
Book 5: Repatriated — Stayed
Prequel flashback to a time before the Repatriation, before the Freeman family, before Liberia. See how some tried to stay.
Across all volumes, the Repatriated Series explores the deepest questions of identity and destiny:
Who belongs to a land? Who inherits a history? What binds a people together when everything else falls apart?
And most importantly:
Can a nation built from rupture become the last coherent society in a world unraveling at the seams?
The Repatriated Series is not just an alternate history. It is a meditation on humanity itself—its fractures, its ambitions, its myths, and its enduring hope for coherence.
Wealthy sadomasochists hire 5 couples to star in a film where the couples must decide which one person will die. This is the first fiction mystery thriller by RoderickE. This book contains the obligatory black person, Asian person, trans or gay people along with the fallen Christian and the rich white atheists. Yes, it's that kind of book. The kind of books that are supposed to sell to the YA (young adult) crowd. The typical reviewer of RoderickE books almost refused to read and review the book because of its write-to-market content. See what you think and vote on who should die! Maybe everyone!
