In this book, the climax of the trilogy, foul deeds and slaughter abound! Peer and Hilde set sail in the Viking ship 'Water Snake', heading for the shores of Vinland, 'the land beyond the sunset'. Companions on the voyage include Gunnar One-Hand, haunted by ghosts, and his sword-wielding son Harald Silkenhair. Harald has an uncontrollable, raging temper, and a perilous rivalry develops between him and Peer. And that's even before they meet the 'Skraelings' (the Native American people) and the terrifying Jenu - the cannibal giant with the heart of ice...

Did you know that the Vikings reached North America, 500 years before Christopher Columbus? They named it 'Vinland' because they found grapevines there. They also met, and fought with Native American Indians, whom they called 'Skraelings'.

By the way, you'll find the Nis in this book too – I really couldn't leave him behind!
