Product Information

As a child, Thorfinn sat at the feet of the great Leif Ericson and thrilled to wild tales of a land far to the west. But his youthful fantasies were shattered by a mercenary raid. Raised by the Vikings who murdered his family, Thorfinn became a terrifying warrior, forever seeking to kill the band’s leader, Askeladd, and avenge his father. Sustaining Thorfinn through his ordeal are his pride in his family and his dreams of a fertile westward land, a land without war or slavery…the land Leif called Vinland. This sequel to the popular Grimoire of Zero series introudces new settings and protagonists, while retaining the thrilling action, detailed worldbuilding, and emotional resonance of its predecessor. Saybil is a magic student with no memories of his life before he met a mysterious silver-haired woman in an alley. Now he travels with his teacher, Loux, another student named Holt, and the beastfallen Kudo for "special training"… but this field trip may not be as routine as it seems! Yoi Takiguchi's long legs, deep voice, and handsome face are the perfect recipe for an attractive guy-until people realize she is, in fact, a girl. Dubbed a "prince" by her peers since childhood, Yoi has all but given up on being seen as anything else. That is, until she bumps into Ichimura-sempai, the school's other prince (who's a he) and gets a taste of what it feels like to be seen for her true self. The story of the two high school princes starts here!

Now he must live as Ars Louvent, scion of a minor noble family and wielder of a fabulous skill: Appraisal, the power to perceive the strengths and abilities of others at a glance. He'll need it, too, because there are plenty of problems to solve in the Louvent family's territory! Ars only has one choice: recruit the most talented individuals his skill can find, and rise up to new heights in his brand new world! Prequel to the hit manga series, Seraph of the End! Detailing the events before the apocalypse, 15 year old Guren Ichinose enrolls at Daiichi Shibuya High, a magical training school. Witness his trials as he must hide his true strength even as he is trampled on at a school for the insufferably privileged. Thorfinn and Einar say goodbye to Snake, Sverkel, Olmar and Pater. Olmar thanks Thorfinn and says he wants to become a man like him someday. As they leave on Leif's knarr, Snake tells them his real name is Roald, son of Grim. After the events of Ketil's farm, Canute stops his plan to confiscate wealth and instead disbands most of his Danish troops, reducing the tax burden on the English and gradually leading them to accept him as their legitimate ruler. Ketil recovers from his wounds, but loses his will to work and retires. As the farm's new master, Olmar sells off half of Ketil farm's lands and some of the family's personal holdings to generously compensate those who were injured or lost family during the battle. The guests do farmwork to earn their meals and Sverkel, on Snake's request endeavours to teach him the work of a farmer. Thorgil leaves the farm, but does not return to Canute's service. On the knarr, Leif tells Thorfinn and Einar that he will help them in their difficult endeavour to build a country in Vinland, but that first, they will return to Iceland to see Thorfinn's mother Helga and sister Ylva. In December 1018, Thorfinn arrives in Iceland with Leif, Einar and Bug-Eyes, having not been home since the age of six. Thorfinn meets with Ylva first, who does not recognize him. She believes Leif made up the story of running into a grown-up Thorfinn in York some years prior to cheer her and her mother up. Thorfinn goes to see Helga next, who immediately recognizes him. She remarks he has the same eyes as Thors and Thorfinn tearfully apologizes to her. Thorfinn plays with his nephews and his niece until their father, Ari, arrives home and reunites with Thorfinn. Ylva comes home and is angry to see the "imposter" again, but Helga tells her it is really her brother. Thorfinn reaches for a hug, but Ylva punches him and angrily yells at him for not coming home when he was alive all this time.Okay so first of all based on the cover I thought that this was a more fun, family friendly adventure manga... don’t judge a book by it’s cover! While not particularly graphic or anything (this is a hard PG-13 or mild R) this is a gritty viking tale. I will admit I don’t know a pile about vikings (though know a bit) so while I may have missed some historical inaccuracies, this did seem fairly historically accurate based on what I know of vikings. Mona is the cutest girl in school, and she knows it. In fact, she's worked hard to make her high school debut succcessful. But no matter what she does, she can't seem to catch the eye of stone-cold stoic Medaka Kuroiwa-but she's not about to give up that easy. Medaka, on the other hand, has been raised at a temple as a monk and was told to never become close to women. Who will win in this heated battle of wills? If you are new to Vinland Saga, the story follows Thorfinn, a young kid who grew up on stories of a distant land out west from the legendary Leif Ericson. But life takes a brutal turn when Vikings wipe out his family. He ends up growing up among the very Vikings who caused his pain, and he becomes this fierce warrior on a mission to take down their leader, Askeladd, and avenge his family. Through all the ups and downs, Thorfinn clings to his family’s pride and dreams of discovering a peaceful land out west, the place Leif dubbed Vinland. Vinland Saga is one of the best seinen I’ve ever read, so it goes without saying that I highly recommend it, but now is an especially great time to get into the series with the release of these collector’s edition hardcovers.

Details Revealed for the Vinland Saga Deluxe Editions

Noooo *metal slap*, I need to get serious here, I appreciate this series too much to not try my best to form an actual review here. His army starving for resources, King Canute schemes to confiscate Ketil’s farm. Ketil and his sons become fugitives, barely escaping the capital aboard Leif Ericson’s ship, but Canute follows in pursuit with his best men. Upon Ketil’s return, he finds his beloved slave Arnheid has helped her former husband, a runaway who has killed many of Ketil’s bodyguards, escape. Beset by betrayal on all sides, there may be no way out for Ketil, but Thorfinn finally has his freedom. Yet, the son of Thors feels bound to Denmark by his unfinished business with Canute… From there we see how Thorfinn begins his tragic tale. It was very interesting to see how the Floki-Askelaad connections works. The death of Thorrs at Askelaad's hand is the driving force for Thorfinn's story. Shikimori and Izumi are high school sweethearts. They hold hands walking home from school, they flirt in the halls, they tease each other. But Shikimori knows what she wants, and how to get it, and she can turn from cutie to cool in an instant. I read this 2 years ago and thought was okay. Now re-reading it I still wouldn't go with "great" but I'll go with good now for sure.Kodansha is the biggest print manga publisher in the world, who republish their manga as part of Penguin Random House in the USA for the English-speaking market, including the Vertical imprint.

The new shonen action manga from the creator of Magi is here! Musashi is a teenager living under demon rule.
