I was really struck by this. He was a great mind and I thoroughly enjoyed his work. I was very surprised however to see that he had 5 former wives. Wow. I wonder why that was? 5!

I really loved his book "The 13th Warrior" later called "Eaters of the Dead."

Didn't know it was his, as I only saw the movie, but I really did enjoy it.

Buliwyf: 'Lo, there do I see my father. 'Lo, there do I see...
Herger the Joyous: My mother, and my sisters, and my brothers.
Buliwyf: 'Lo, there do I see...
Herger the Joyous: The line of my people...
Edgtho the Silent: Back to the beginning.
Weath the Musician: 'Lo, they do call to me.
Ahmed Ibn Fahdlan: They bid me take my place among them.
Buliwyf: Iin the halls of Valhalla...
Ahmed Ibn Fahdlan: Where the brave...
Herger the Joyous: May live...
Ahmed Ibn Fahdlan: ...forever.

You have that backwards, it was originally "Eaters of the Dead," it was republished later as "The 13th Warrior" to coincide with the release of the movie.
