Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Death Doesn't Discriminate is a preliminary study into Scandinavian women of the Viking age. The book examines the religious motivations that Scandinavian women had to convert to Christianity. Namely, the study seeks to answer why women found Christianity appealing and chose to become Christian, setting aside pagan belief systems. The depictions of women in each belief system is explored both in daily life and in the mythology that underpinned both beliefs. The argument is made that what appealed most to Scandinavian women was the Christian afterlife.
