I'd love some recommendations for gay historical romances involving Vikings--assuming they even exist; I haven't been able to find any on my own. The closest thing I've found to what I'm searching for is A Companion to Wolves by Sarah Monette and Elizabeth Bear, which really isn't close at all. Basically, I want the profic versions of [archiveofourown.org profile] Helenish's Patience, a Steady Hand. Any recs?

Rosemary Sutcliff wrote two books set among Vikings, Blood Feud and Sword Song. They aren't romances, nor gay, and I haven't read them yet, but given that they're Rosemary Sutcliff, they are almost certainly satisfyingly slashy. (I have no idea if that helps.)

Also, I know there's some recentish Arthurian stuff that includes both invading Norsemen and gayness, although possibly not at the same time...

/sorry for unhelpfulness, not a romance reader

Blood Feud is slashy; Sword Song isn't very, IMO.
