VINLAND SAGA 4 - ACTION 202

Europe. Eleventh century after Christ. A bloody era in which steel traced the furrow of history and dominated by a proud people: the era of the Vikings. Thorkell the Tall has captured the young Prince Canute of Denmark. His goal is not to obtain a ransom, but to attract King Sweyn's attention and force him to engage in battle so as to deserve a place among the Einherjar in the great halls of Valhalla. But Askeladd thinks to put a spoke in his wheel and, near Marloborough, organizes a trap to free the young prince. Will Askeladd be right about the ferocious Thorkell? The narration of the great historical tapestry woven by Yukimura continues, capable of merging the great events of history with the complex humanity of its protagonists.
