Eirik's men soon raid the Norwegian coast, led by a warrior called the Bear. Cruel and ferocious, the Bear possesses a legendary blade  one that gives him unmatched battle-skill. Such an extraordinary sword could be key to Einar's plans  but first he and his crewmates, the Wolf Coats, must contend with the Bear himself.

Caught between old foes and new ones, Einar must use all his wits to survive. But is a man who cannot wield a sword capable of being a true Viking warrior?
