About This Novel

In the past, Viking pirates often appeared in various legends and stories as brutal, bloody, and mysterious images. But we don't know what they really are. What is the secret of the Dragon Head Long Ship? What did the real Vikings look like? Is the "Viking Battle Ax" a brutal and barbaric invader or a warrior who opens up new territories? Was their bloody rule over England driven by bloodlust and plunder or was there something else? This book starts from bizarre myths and legends, analyzes fictional stories, reveals the real history, puts aside the conventional public perception, and paints a different portrait of "Vikings" for us. The book introduces the legend and history of the Norse warriors' conquest of England, and also shows us how Viking culture traveled through a long period of time and had a huge impact on today's world.
