Synopsis

He’s coming of age in a world of myths and legends. Can this Nordic warrior fend off the forces of darkness?

Erland Kalebsen always dreamed of being a swordsman. Nothing more would please him than following in the path of his legendary line of Viking heroes. But when a girl lands on their shores accompanied by a perilous prophecy, and whispers of war, Erland’s fantasy becomes a frightening reality.

Banding together with other young adventurers in his clan, the fearless teen dares to set out to find eight magical arm rings that the storyweavers say will ward off disaster.
