    Voyage through hundreds of years of seafaring, swashbuckling history as you uncover the story of the Vikings.

    Follow the adventures of one family through time as each new generation helps tell the story of one of the greatest seafaring civilizations of all time. Swing your axe and fell giant oaks with shipbuilder’s assistant Olaf. Decades later, see his descendant make an offering to the fierce fighter god Odin. Then, turn the page and watch as Gudrun prepares shields and spears for battle.

    From the earliest seafarers who struck out for bold new lands, up until the end of the Scandinavian monarchs, uncover the real story behind the rampaging raiders who sped across the sea. With plenty of tiny details to spot and characters that let you see the world through their eyes, Let’s Meet the Vikings immerses you in history on every page.
