Synopsis
As a child, Thorfinn sat at the feet of the great Leif Ericson and thrilled to hear wild tales of a land far to the west. But his youthful fantasies were shattered by an unexpected attack from the Viking mercenary Askalaad. Raised by the Vikings responsible for his father's murder, Thorfinn became a fearsome warrior intent on killing the leader Askeladd to exact his revenge. Thus, through overcoming obstacles, Thorfinn pursues his dream of living in a fertile land in the west, a land without war or slavery… the land Leif called Vinland.
