The Last Berserker

The north is dying.King Hakon's armies march across the frozen lands burning villages, hanging rebels, and crushing the old clans beneath steel and holy law. The age of warriors is ending, and the last remnants of the old world are being buried beneath blood soaked snow.Far from the war, Eirik Vargrsson lives alone in the mountains, hiding from the world and from the monster inside himself. Once feared across the north as the most savage berserker ever to live, Eirik abandoned war long ago after losing everything he loved. But when refugees fleeing Hakon's slaughter arrive at his cabin, the old rage awakens once more.Now hunted by royal soldiers, assassins known as the Black Hands, and the king himself, Eirik is dragged back into a war he wanted no part in. As the north gathers for one final stand at Black Fjord, stories begin to spread of a dead berserker walking through fire and arrows without falling.But legends are dangerous things.Especially when they are true.Brutal, bleak, and soaked in blood and frost, The Last Berserker is a grimdark Viking inspired epic about war, vengeance, fear, and the terrible cost of becoming a monster to fight monsters.
