Genre:

Action ยท Historical Fantasy ยท Viking Survival Thriller

Plot Overview:

Set in the brutal northern wilderness during the twilight of the Viking Age, SKAL: Fight for Survival follows a scattered clan of Norse warriors betrayed by their own king and left for dead in foreign, hostile territory.

As winter descends and danger closes in from all sidesโ€”mercenaries, wild beasts, rival clansโ€”Erik Thorsson, a disgraced jarlโ€™s son, must rally the remnants of his people to fight their way home. Alongside him: a vรถlva (seeress) with visions of Ragnarรถk, and a mute warrior whose scars hide a secret past.

But survival will demand more than strengthโ€”it will require sacrifice, unity, and the will to embrace the beast within.

โ€œThey came to conquer. They stayed to survive.โ€
