Askeladd has embarked on the greatest gamble of his career, playing off the brave but thick Thorkell the Tall against the king’s own guard in an attempt to "rescue" the youngest prince, and pocket a handsome reward. Yet a grueling march past the ruins of empires, with winter closing in, tests the loyalty of Askeladd's band, and the true loyalties of Askeladd himself may lie not with the Vikings of the present but with a legendary king of the bygone past... This premium, hardcover edition presents the acclaimed action epic in hardcover, at a bigger size than ever before (7 by 10 inches), wrapped in a red leather-patterned cover with logo stamping. This new edition features all the content of the original release, plus new and exclusive bonus illustrations, interviews, and behind-the-scenes details never before translated.
