4.0
So, this is a pretty intense first volume!
Set in the age of Vikings, this stories follows Thorfinn on his quest to avenge his father’s death. As a child, he witnessed his father’s death at the hands of mercenary, Askeladd. Now, Thorfinn serves Askeladd as a member of the man’s mercenary band. A ruthless warrior like his father before him, Thorfinn lies in wait for his chance at vengeance. Will he attain it? Or, is there more to his father’s death and to Askeladd’s actions? Is someone else pulling the strings?
Very engaging to read! Wonderful world-building! Looking forward to reading more!
