Vinland Saga
Synopsis: Young Thorfinn grew up listening to the stories of former sailors who had traveled through the ocean and reached the place of the legend, Vinland. It is said that it is hot and fertile, a place where there would be no need to fight - not like the frozen village in Iceland, where he was born, and certainly not as his present life as a mercenary. War is your home now. Although your father said once, "You have no enemies, no one has. There is no one who is not good to hurt," when he grew up, Thorfinn knew that nothing was further from the truth.
The war between England and the Danes gets worse with each passing year. Death has become common and Viking mercenaries are loving every moment. Alien on both sides will take a big balance in the balance of power, and the Vikings will be happy to make names for themselves and take any spoils they gain along the way. Among chaos, Thorfinn should take revenge and kill Askeladd, the man who murdered his father. The only paradise for the Vikings, it seems, is the age of war and death that gets angry.
